cygwin OpenSSH ssh-agent on Win2000


Hello,

Does anyone know how to start the explorer.exe process from ssh-agent when
you log into an NT/2000 system?

I'm trying to do the same as "ssh-agent /etc/X11/xinit/xclients" to make the
ssh agent available to all programs through the environment variables.

From within a cygwin bash shell I can do "exec ssh-agent bash" (followed by
ssh-add) and have everything work from that shell, but of course the
variables don't exist in any other shells.

It would seem like having ssh-agent launch explorer when you log in would
work, but I don't know what to tweak where in the registry.

Thanks,
-dave.
