Hi, I yesterday installed a bare minimum Cygwin (via internet) on to a laptop running Windows XP. The purpose of the Cygwin installation is to backup data on to a Linux computer using rsync and ssh.
I was wondering, to allow for passwordless login via ssh I have to run ssh-agent and ssh-add commands. I have put ssh-agent in .bashrc in Cygwin user's home and "kill $SSH_AGENT_PID" in .bash_logout. But how do I deal with ssh-add? In other words, what do I need to do so that a user doesn't need to do ssh-add each time he logins into his account in Windows XP (ssh-agent and ssh-add run automatically)? There is no X server installed, no Gnome, no KDM, no fvwm. All help is appreciated. thanks, ->HS -- Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple Problem reports: http://cygwin.com/problems.html Documentation: http://cygwin.com/docs.html FAQ: http://cygwin.com/faq/
