Hi All... The attached script launches the ssh-agent (via keychain) from cygrunsrv so that it (the ssh-agent process) survives logout. It takes no keys when it is launched, it just creates the ssh-agent process that can stay around forever. Then when you start a bash login shell, the keychain invocation in your .profile will feed in the key list and ask for passphrases. Now you are set until the next reboot. This version is simpler and more robust. Enjoy, ...Karl _________________________________________________________________ The new MSN 8: smart spam protection and 2 months FREE* http://join.msn.com/?page=features/junkmail -------------- next part -------------- An embedded and charset-unspecified text was scrubbed...
