It acts as a frontend to ssh-agent and ssh-add, but allows you + to easily have one long running ssh-agent process per system, rather + than the norm of one ssh-agent per login session. + + This dramatically reduces the number of times you need to enter your + passphrase. With keychain, you only need to enter a passphrase once + every time your local machine is rebooted. Keychain also makes it easy + for remote cron jobs to securely "hook in" to a long-running ssh-agent + process, allowing your scripts to take advantage of key-based logins. + ''; }; }
