12      ssh-agent is a program to hold private keys used for public key
13      authentication (RSA, DSA, ECDSA, Ed25519).  ssh-agent is usually started
15      windows or programs are started as clients to the ssh-agent program.
16      Through use of environment variables the agent can be located and
20      The agent initially does not have any private keys.  Keys are added using
22      Multiple identities may be stored in ssh-agent concurrently and ssh(1)
24      remove keys from ssh-agent and to query the keys that are held in one.
29              Bind the agent to the UNIX-domain socket bind_address.  The
30              default is $TMPDIR/ssh-XXXXXXXXXX/agent.<ppid>.

68      agent.  When the command dies, so does the agent.
70      The idea is that the agent is run in the user's local PC, laptop, or
73      connection to the agent is forwarded over SSH remote logins, and the user
77      There are two main ways to get an agent set up: The first is that the
78      agent starts a new subcommand into which some environment variables are
79      exported, eg ssh-agent xterm &.  The second is that the agent prints the
81      which can be evaluated in the calling shell, eg eval `ssh-agent -s` for
82      Bourne-type shells such as sh(1) or ksh(1) and eval `ssh-agent -c` for
86      connection to the agent.
88      The agent will never send a private key over its request channel.

91      private keys are not exposed to clients using the agent.
98      The SSH_AGENT_PID environment variable holds the agent's process ID.
100      The agent exits automatically when the command given on the command line
