Using keychain, one can share ssh-agent stored identities across sessions : keychain stores (typically in ~/.keychain/${HOST}-sh) working values for SSH_AUTH_SOCK and SSH_AGENT_PID environment variables, which allows any shell program sourcing this file to use the existing ssh-agent. Ahmad, if we add support for keychain to backupninja, would you use it? Ninja-friends, what do you think of adding keychain support to backupninja? I could do this one of these days, since I'm already using keychain actually for other tasks. Ciao, -- intrigeri <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> | gnupg key @ http://intrigeri.boum.org/intrigeri.asc
