SSH Keychain for Xfce
I have recently switched from Gnome to Xfce on Ubuntu 9.04.
In Gnome, the first time I entered the passphrase, it prompted me to save the passphrase.
In Xfce however, I am prompted for the passphrase every time I connect.
Is there a simple way to save the passphrase in Xfce?
Solution 1:
Use ssh-agent
and ssh-add
?
Solution 2:
If you've installed Seahorse (sudo apt-get install seahorse
), add export $(gnome-keyring-daemon --daemonize --start)
to your .bashrc
and you'll get the same SSH key behaviour as in vanilla Ubuntu.
