Leopard does not need SSHKeychain anymore

OSX, Switching, Tools Add comments

Leopard automatically comes with SSHKeychain support, so no external application is needed anymore. At first (before uninstalling) remove the mark “Manage (and modify) global environment variables” from SSHKeychain - then throw it away, it’s plist and remove it from the automatic startup. The easiest way is to reboot now, at least log off to remove the bash environment variable set by SSHKeychain.
Afterwards try following command:

kulawik-nb:.ssh skulawik$ echo $SSH_AUTH_SOCK
/tmp/launch-HYbqHA/Listeners

The result should be something like “/tmP/launch*” (otherwise SSHKeychain is still running).
Then change the ssh config file (this was previously done by SSHKeychain configuration):

joe ~/.ssh/config

and enter such lines (this ones could be repeated):

IdentityFile ~/.ssh/id_privat
To get best Linux experience (Page-up / down / et all) try my private Terminal.app settings for Leopard:

Linux.terminal.gz
