The attached script launches the ssh-agent (via keychain) from cygrunsrv so that it survives logout.
Enjoy,

Hi All...
What is the easiest method to make the ssh-agent process survive logout on win-2k when using keychain?
I thought about a sleeping process under cygrunsrv with the --noask option and then add the keys in my .profile
If I kill the process and then launch it from ssh localhost it sticks around after logout.
Anything easier?
Thanks,
...Karl
