Hi Dirk,
This way SSH_AUTH_SOCK is correct but SSH_AGENT_PID is surprisingly unset somethere. Any idea how to fix that?
the PID is set via eval $(ssh-agent).
Sure. The problem is that when I do "eval `ssh-agent" in ~/.bashrc, it sets SSH_AGENT_PID but then it's unset somewhere (where and why?). This happens only under x2go, SPICE session works as expected (but SPICE is unusable for other reasons)
This is what I do:
[[ -s $HOME/.ssh-agent ]] || ssh-agent -s > $HOME/.ssh-agent source $HOME/.ssh-agent 2>&1 >/dev/null
if [[ -z "$SSH_AGENT_PID" ]] || ! ps -fp "$SSH_AGENT_PID" | grep -q ssh-agent; then ssh-agent -s > $HOME/.ssh-agent 2>&1 >/dev/null source $HOME/.ssh-agent 2>&1 >/dev/null fi
if ! ssh-add -l | grep -q id_dsa; then ssh-add $HOME/.ssh/id_dsa fi
Where do you put this code? Do you have the only instance of ssh-agent per X session?
