Hello, I am wondering how you guys manage multiple ssh keys on your system. This is how I got to manage multiple keys on my system. Generate keys ssh-keygen -t rsa -f ~/.ssh/test_ssh_key_1 -C "yours@xxxxxxxxx" ssh-keygen -t rsa -f ~/.ssh/test_ssh_key_2 -C "yours@xxxxxxxxx" ssh-keygen -t rsa -f ~/.ssh/test_ssh_key_3 -C "yours@xxxxxxxxx" ksshaskpass came already installed and SSH_ASKPASS set to /usr/bin/ksshaskpass. Moving on these keys can be added to ssh-agent using following command. ssh-add ~/.ssh/test_ssh_key_1 I ran these commands through KRunner so it triggers ksshaskpass and not password prompt on the terminal. This way Kwallet will save the password and I will not be asked to enter passphrase every time I am accessing anything over ssh. In order to automatically load these keys at system start I created following script. ~/.kde/Autostart/ksshaskpass #!/bin/sh export SSH_ASKPASS=/usr/bin/ksshaskpass ssh-add ~/.ssh/test_ssh_key_1 < /dev/null ssh-add ~/.ssh/test_ssh_key_2 < /dev/null ssh-add ~/.ssh/test_ssh_key_3 < /dev/null chmod 755 ~/.kde/Autostart/ksshaskpass The problem is if KWallet is not opened as soon as system is started KDE will start the script triggering ksshaskpass to ask to enter password for the first ssh key. This is a working setup but not perfect. I was wondering if there is a way to ssh-add the key to ssh-agent on-demand or maybe trigger to open KWallet instead of ksshaskpass. What is wrong with my setup? How do you manage your ssh keys? -- Regards, Sudhir Khanger. sudhirkhanger.com https://github.com/donniezazen _______________________________________________ kde mailing list kde@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/kde New to KDE4? - get help from http://userbase.kde.org
