[cobalt-users] where is /bin/bash started? WAS: backing-up using rsync+ssh

["Glenn Parsons" <gparsons@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hello All,

I'm hoping Glen Scott is lurking around here. Maybe someone else can help
me?

I've really done my research on this and am ready to set my servers up!
However, I need to find the "magic" file to insert the follorwing command:

ssh-agent $SHELL

I am setting up an ssh1 authentication without password. I saw others who
were suggesting not using a passphrase, but I felt that was just too
unsecure. In order to authenticate without a password or passphrase you have
to run the shell withing ssh-agent. All the documentation that I have read
has been little help in figuring out where to launch this.

Thanks,
Glenn
