ssh-agent with lxde session?

Post by lxde-account »

Hello,

I'm trying to set up ssh-agent to avoid typing the same passphrase each time I have to use ssh.
How can I make it work with lxde?
I'm on Fedora 18. Do you know where is the lxde session started (in a script somewhere?) ?

Thanks a lot for your help.

I've struggled with the same problem recently. As a solution I came with the combination of ssh-agent and ssh-add. I've written some "includer" to the .bashrc
It's available on the following site:

Welcome to the LXDE forum and thank you for your work. Sometimes when a question is not answered in the first week or so and is not bumped, especially on the smaller forums, it is forgotten. Stick around and provide your assistance if you have the time and the inclination.
