Sorry for long time before replying, I have lot of things to do those
days...
Your solutions sounds like an interesting one, I'll give it a try when
I will have some time. I'm still not an expert about ssh, so I did not
thought/known about port redirection.

I haven't looked at pgadmin in quite some time, didn't know they
added
ssh functionality, but the following would work in any case:
ssh -args -L5432:remote_host1:5432 user@remote_host1
ssh -args -L5433:remote_host2:5432 user@remote_host2
configure pgadmin sessions to connect to localhost:5432, and
localhost:5433, voila.
Sorry if this doesn't give you what you want

I am trying to make pgadmin using a ssh tunnel. I do not want to
install a xorg server on production servers just for pgadmin :) (
plus the fact that I would have to run a pgadmin on every server
with a db... definitely a no-go. )
In more verbose:
I have pgadmin installed on my localhost Debian, i3 ( my window
manager ) is started with "ssh-agent startx" in ~/.bash_profile, so
that I am able to use ssh-add to add my keys, and then to use ssh
without it asking me my passphrases constantly. This works fine.
I have added servers in pgadmin with uses the tab "SSH Tunnel",
enabled "Use SSH tunneling", filled "Tunnel host", "Username",
selected "identity file", and of course I have given Identity file.
When I try to connect, pgadmin asks me the postgresql password (
this is normal ), and then my passphrase ( this is not normal,
since
I have added my passphrase to ssh-agent through ssh-add ).
When I have given the identifiers pgadmin wants, things works (
only had few crashes, but not easy to reproduce, and I do not have
any information about the reason, I do not always start pgadmin
from
terminal... ). The only problem is, is it possible to make pgadmin
using ssh-agent stuff, like in commandline ssh usual commands?
Because I connect to exactly 2 distant servers, and I do not like
to enter my passphrases everytime there is a connection problem, a
crash, or whatever. It would be really nicer if I could only type
the 2 postgresql passwords ( which is still annoying, but I do not
know if it can be helped. )
PS: no need to make me in CC, I have subscribed to the list.

Berenger, are you wanting to tunnel the pgadmin connection to the
db
servers, or ssh X11 forward a remote pgadmin app to local
desktop, or
...?

Hello.
Is it possible to use pgadmin in combination with ssh-agent?
I have configured ssh-agent and my Xorg session and it works
well
in command-line ( a ssh-add on a terminal allows any ssh
connection
on any other terminal ) but it seems pgadmin does not look at
ssh-agent keys, which makes mandatory to type the passphrase
to the
system, and the password of the postgresql user I'm trying to
connect. Since I use that ssh connection to connect to 2 DB
servers,
I have to type 4 passwords each time I'm trying to (re)connect,
