Hi Ulf, hi list,

Sorry about the "reply-to-all" that I forgot. Now it goes to all.

So, I found this answer here:

https://unix.stackexchange.com/questions/122511/configuring-the-default-
timeout-for-the-ssh-agent

(in the end of the text of the accepted answer)

and it says to do exactly as your second suggestion.


SOLUTION: These options works:

SSHAGENTARGS="-t 1h"
SSHAGENTARGS="-t 3600"



BUG: These causes a strange boot as KDE not initializing:

SSHAGENTARGS="-s -t 3600"
SSHAGENTARGS=-st3600

Thanks all, specially Ulf.

Beco.

remove the quotes. at the moment ssh-agent got only one (long) argument.
You will find the syntax error in ~/.xsession-errors

Xsession.d ssh-agent

2017-11-25 Thread Beco 
Dear users,

Does anyone knows why KDE won't start if I change this file...


```Original
$ head -n8 /etc/X11/Xsession.d/90x11-common_ssh-agent

# $Id: 90x11-common_ssh-agent 305 2005-07-03 18:51:43Z dnusinow $

# This file is sourced by Xsession(5), not executed.

STARTSSH=
SSHAGENT=/usr/bin/ssh-agent
SSHAGENTARGS=

```

...line SSHAGENTARGS=

to simple add this arguments:

SSHAGENTARGS="-s -t 36000"

(10h for identities lifetime)

It (KDE) just freezes in a blank screen during boot. Not even the mouse
cursor comes up. There it stays...

Maybe that is not the place to add such arguments?

Thanks,

Beco
