-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Hi,
looking up the mailinglist and testing a while I figured out that with following .bash_profile, I can have one ssh-agent thruoghout all sessions I open! Once the agent is running the following shells use it again! Although the first shell will not close by it self till the last one is gone. May be helpfull for anybody using ssh! #!/bin/bash trap ' if [ "$(ps -fu `id -un`|grep -c bash)" -eq 2 ] then test -n "$SSH_AGENT_PID" && eval `ssh-agent -k` ; setx.exe SSH_AGENT_PID ""; setx.exe SSH_AUTH_SOCK ""; fi ' 0 ... if [ "$SSH_AUTH_SOCK" = "" ] then eval `ssh-agent`; /usr/bin/tty > /dev/null && ssh-add $HOME/.ssh/id_dsa; setx.exe SSH_AGENT_PID $SSH_AGENT_PID; setx.exe SSH_AUTH_SOCK $SSH_AUTH_SOCK; fi -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: PGP 8.0 iQA/AwUBPiq++50aiFY+2vypEQKafQCdF+35SKzOgXQtK4PkQwpSowPzeaMAoI46 nONcpKXrLfs/ww3jdFTl6B0o =Gurg -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- -- Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple Bug reporting: http://cygwin.com/bugs.html Documentation: http://cygwin.com/docs.html FAQ: http://cygwin.com/faq/
