An Illustrated Guide to SSH Agent Forwarding

Hello all,

I periocially publish Tech Tips on my website on various issues in
computerdom, and this week I released one which is particularly on target
for this list: a detailed discussion of SSH agent forwarding.

I had a customer who simply would not get past using password auth, even
on an internal network with lots of machines, so I wrote this Tip to give
them the big picture on just what they were missing. They, and others,
have reported it helpful, and I hope those here do as well:

Some time ago I also release a Tip which is more of a HOWTO on PuTTY
setup, which might be good for end users to consult:
