1 Hello,
2
3 I have previously used keychain as per the gentoo docs. Once I
4 supplied the SSH passphrase at the console I was able to access other
5 machines without providing a password.
6
7 I have just started using gnome and am logging in using gdm. When I log
8 in I am not asked for a passphrase. If I start a screen session in an
9 xterm I'm prompted for my passphrase. Then I start a new xterm and use
10 it to ssh to another machine and a dialogue opens asking for the
11 passphrase.
12
13 I would like to know how to configure gdm/gnome to ask for the
14 passprhase once, at login so that I don't have to enter it multiple
15 times.
16
17 Thanks,
18 Roger
