I'm using keychain (version 2.6.2) under Mac OSX Tiger (10.4.8) with OpenSSH (4.2p1). There i have a problem with the SSH_AUTH_SOCK. If i start the keychain with: --snip ~/.bash_profile -- keychain id_rsa . ~/.keychain/$HOSTNAME-sh --snip-- under the iTerm (/bin/bash) i get the following warning: --snip-- KeyChain 2.6.2; http://www.gentoo.org/proj/en/keychain/ Copyright 2002-2004 Gentoo Foundation; Distributed under the GPL * Warning: SSH_AUTH_SOCK in environment is invalid; ignoring it * Found existing ssh-agent (627) * Known ssh key: /Users/drscream/.ssh/id_rsa --snip-- It looks like the same error i have found in the gentoo forum: http://forums.gentoo.org/viewtopic.php?t=353448 But the problem is I cannot restart X because i using "aqua" from Mac OSX :)
Are you using Gentoo for Mac OS X, or Gentoo/Alt:Prefix on Mac OS X? (post your emerge --info)
