Hi All,

i was  looking for information on how i can
do password-less ssh to the remote machines
in my office ...

the info i found was for redhat xsession related
config files ...

then, i "accidentally" saw that ssh-agent is already started
by default:

> [lotus]# ps -ef|grep ssh-agent
    root   692   691   0 19:17:53 ?           0:00 /usr/bin/ssh-agent -- 
/usr/bin/dbus-launch --exit-with-session /usr/dt/bin/Xses
    root 17711  1044   0 20:30:11 pts/5       0:00 grep ssh-agent
> [lotus]# 

and the ssh-agent connection info is already
available in my terminal windows ...

> [lotus]# env | grep SSH
> SSH_AUTH_SOCK=/tmp/ssh-XXtYaywb/agent.691
> SSH_AGENT_PID=692
> [lotus]# 

is there more information on who starts the agent?
are there canned instructions on how we can "auto"
get the passwords ssh-add'ed during login ?
(x11-ssh-askpass etc ?)

or do we manually ssh-add the keys in a window
we open, after logging in ?

Thanks Very Much! And automatically starting the
ssh-agent is a great idea !!

cheers,
sam
