If I run ssh again, it prompts again at the terminal. (By "terminal" I really mean an instance of gnome-terminal.) I expected the following behavior: When I run ssh the first time for this particular host, it should prompt for my passphrase in a new window. When I run ssh again after that, it should succeed without prompting at all. If I run "env" in the terminal, I see values for SSH_AGENT_PID and SSH_AUTH_SOCK as well as GNOME_KEYRING_CONTROL. If I run "ps -ax" I see both ssh-agent and gnome-keyring-daemon running. Finally, /etc/alternatives/ssh-askpass is linked to /usr/lib/openssh/gnome-ssh- askpass. If I run "ssh-add" explicitly to add the key, it also prompts me for my password at the terminal, but after that, ssh uses the unlocked key (that is, it no longer prompts for that key's passphrase).
