Hi,

There is a series of three excellent articles by the author of Keychain about getting the most out of SSH passwordless authentication.
The first article explains the concepts, the second article explains how to use keychain effectively, and the third about ssh-agent forwarding. Unless you find yourself having to log into multiple machines from one (or maybe two) desktops, then the third article is probably less relevant.
Well worth the read and persevering to get it set up properly.


Oh yes, the articles can be found at

Thanks very much Ben. Between yourself and Mr Middleton I have some
engaging reading ahead of me. I've just started reading it and it's
already cleared up a couple of things I didn't understand.

That's what I love about the whole GNU linux thang. The more you know,
the more you realise there is so much more to know, and the more you
want to know.
