Re: ssh-agent and gnome?

[Matt Stockdale <mstockda dti net>]

Thanks everyone, I got it working, using the eval `ssh-agent -s` bit in my .gnomerc. However, the helix GDM doesn't play nice, and doesn't actually read my .gnomerc. I wonder why. once I linked it to .xinitrc, it all worked fine..

Thanks for the help everyone,
  matt

I've tried putting it in my .gnomerc (I start gnome from GDM) as "ssh-agent gnome-session" but it doesn't start ssh-agent (or at least, it fails to stay started..) and certainly doesn't pass the environment vars to everything. as it stands, I hacked it to work by having it echo the correct environment vars into a file that then gets sourced by my .tcshrc, but of course that only works if I want to ssh from a tcsh.
