Windows has a built in ssh-agent included with openssh, no need for pagent anymore.
Ssh agent will manage your ssh keys through windows registry windows login process.
Also if you use wsl, you can access your ssh keys in wsl from the windows ssh-agent via npiperelay
- yau8edq12i 2y agoYou don't even need a relay to use the windows SSH agent from wsl. Simply use ssh.exe instead of /bin/ssh. I've been doing that for a while (I make a symlink in a folder from my PATH that gets picked up before /bin) and haven't encountered any issues so far.
- spacemanspiff01 2y agoGood to know, I had an issue when I tried that, but thinking back it was a ssh version incompatibility between the default windows and ubuntu.
