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:
