A Hot Potato.
Try out these features:
==========================
Import SSH public keys:
- One one machine right click your personal SSH key and
'Export' it to a file.
- Move the file to another computer.
- Drag the file into the Key Manager.
- Select the key and check 'The owner of this key is
authorized to access this computer'.
Save your SSH key passphrases in gnome-keyring.
- Make sure you have a SSH key agent setup properly
(most distros do)
- Check the 'Automatically load SSH keys' checkbox on
the 'Passphrase Cache' tab in 'Encryption Preferences'.
