(?) Dangling ssh-agent processes with GNOME

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]



I recently noticed a LOT of ssh-agent processes running on my system (CentOS 4.2).  It seems that the ssh-agent gets started before 
the session manager (in /etc/X11/xinit/xinitrc-common) which is great.  The only problem is that the agent process does not die when 
the session shuts down.

I run ssh-add in my session startup to get my key loaded into ssh-agent, so that might be part of the issue.  I just haven't been 
able to figure out where to kill the beast.  Is there somewhere I can run an arbitrary program when the session manager runs down? 
A medium-intensity search of the docs and sourcecode didn't turn up anything applicable.  Plenty of ways to run programs at session 
START, but not at the end.  Anybody got any ideas?
