For the interested, there's a great 3 part series on the IBM developerworks site about ssh key management. http://www.ibm.com/developerworks/linux/library/l-keyc.html which, in particular, discusses the keychain script: http://www.gentoo.org/proj/en/keychain/ which is available in Fedora with a quick yum install keychain.
