DESCRIPTION:
Keychain is an OpenSSH key manager, typically run from
~/.bash_profile. When run, it will make sure ssh-agent is running; if
not, it will start ssh-agent. It will redirect ssh-agent's output to
~/.ssh-agent, so that cron jobs that need to use ssh-agent keys can
simply source this file and make the necessary passwordless ssh
connections. In addition, when keychain runs, it will check with
ssh-agent and make sure that the ssh RSA/DSA keys that you specified on
the keychain command line have actually been added to ssh-agent. If not,
you are prompted for the appropriate passphrases so that they can be
added by keychain.
INSTALLATION:
To update your installation, click on the "Install Cygwin now" link on
the http://cygwin.com/ web page. This downloads setup.exe to your
system. Then, run setup and answer all of the questions.

Fix bug 78974 "keychain errors on Big/IP (x86 BSD variant)" by refraining
from using ! in conditional expressions. Fix RSA fingerprint extraction

possible instead of calling uname -n to improve bash_profile
compatibility.
* keychain 2.5.1 (12 Jan 2005)

07 Jan 2005; Aron Griffis <agriffis@gentoo.org>;
Add inheritance support via --inherit. Add parameters to --stop for

ask multiple times anyway.

22 Sep 2004; Aron Griffis <agriffis@gentoo.org>;

ssh-add as well as the error status

Find running ssh-agent processes by searching for /[s]sh-agen/
instead of /[s]sh-agent/ for the sake of Solaris, which cuts off ps
-u output at 8 characters. Thanks to Clay England for reporting the
problem and testing the fix.
* keychain 2.2.0 (21 Apr 2004)
21 Apr 2004; Aron Griffis <agriffis@gentoo.org>;
Rewrote most of the code, organized into functions, fixed speed
issues involving ps, fixed compatibility issues for various UNIXes,
hopefully didn't introduce too many bugs. This version has a
--quick option (for me) and a --timeout option (for carpaski).
Also added a Makefile and converted the man-page to pod for easier
editing. See perlpod(1) for information on the format. Note that
the pod is sucked into keychain and colorized when you run make.
