YES. ssh-agent is awesome. I have been using it for years. I just use
ssh-agent on my desktop and my automatic ssh key installer script so
when I log in my public key is installed and now I can always log in
passwordlessly. I keep a locking screensaver on my desktop which is also
in a location with acceptable physical security so ssh-agent really
works great. I don't have to remember any machine passwords except the
password for my ssh key so I can authenticate to it/decrypt it when I
first log into my workstation.
Good, but it doesn't work from cron. :)
