I use the script to start ssh-agent and start other script (which is using expect to sent passphrase to agent).
#!/bin/bash
eval `ssh-agent -s`
/root/script2
/root/script2:
#!/usr/bin/expect -f
spawn ssh-add /root/.ssh/key
expect "Enter passphrase for /root/.ssh/key:"
send "passphrase\n";
interact
All scripts are +x Passphrase is valid 100%
After starting first script I get:
Agent pid 3985
spawn ssh-add /root/.ssh/key
Enter passphrase for /root/.ssh/key:
Identity added: /root/.ssh/key (/root/.ssh/key)
As you see, agent started and Identity added BUT when I try "ssh-add -l" I get:
Error connecting to agent: No such file or directory
But process is still working with 3985 PID. Why it tells me Identity added but ssh-add -l didn't work? :(
Ok, I try manually eval ssh-agent and add keyfile:
root@:~# eval `ssh-agent -s`
Agent pid 4063
root@:~# ssh-add -l
The agent has no identities.
root@:~# ssh-add /root/.ssh/key
Enter passphrase for /root/.ssh/key:
Identity added: /root/.ssh/key (/root/.ssh/key)
root@:~# ssh-add -l
4096 SHA256:FxPiCFYOiRree0ogNPpo81DTDUqmr1Brlo0LFnFK12o /root/.ssh/key (RSA)
Why it work when I try to run it manually? How to fix that? I want to add that to rc.local to autostart it when PC starts.
UPD if I try to run only script2 manually, it works (key adds to agent). So I thing problem is with eval sh-agent, but I don't know what's wrong
