On 27-Dec-98 Todd Vierling spoke unto us all:
#  Aty first login, run "ssh-add", which will prompt you for your passphrase,
#  and ssh-agent will take care of all your authentication until you log out.
#  See the ssh-agent(8) page for more info; note that running ssh-agent in the
#  background instead of as a parent of your shell is *not* recommended.

Does this work with xdm at all?  Ie: could I run ssh-agent inside the xdm
startup, and then ssh-add myself when I log in?
