The best approach to the problem is IMO using an ssh agent program. Under unix, you can check for SSH_AGENT_PID and SSH_AUTH_SOCK environment variables to find the information about the program you should talk to. I don't know if the JCraft ssh stuff can talk to an agent though. I also hear that there is an ssh agent (or ssh agent like, because of the obvious lack of unix sockets) for the M$ Windows, distributed as a part of the excelent PuTTY package. This is definetly the most interesting solution as it enables PKI authentication, and lifts the burden of asking for passwords from the application) R. --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
