Another method of passwordless SSH logins
Authored by: david-bo on Jun 03, '04 07:00:42PM

How well does SSHKeychain work when you ssh to a computer where you are not logged in into the GUI (typically a server) and then wants to ssh to another machine?

I do this all the time for different reasons:

1. I am behind some firewall or so that only allows outgoing ssh from certain nodes in the network
2. I want to keep sessions alive. I have a powerbook which I frequently disconnects, therefore to keep sessions alive I ssh into a something with a more stable connection (i.e. a desktop or server) starts one or more 'screen'-sessions, and within those screen-sessions I connect to other servers. Next time I connect my PB I can connect to the desktop and reattach to my screen-session.
