Comprehensive Guide to ssh-agent on Windows and WSL

<p>I want my ssh environment on my Windows workstation setup in a way, that on the first run of a ssh command, I only need to enter my ssh private key passphrase once, so that it gets &ldquo;saved&rdquo; for the current session until i lock or reboot my workstation.<br /> As a bonus on top, I would like the ssh environment in my WSL instance to use the same keys and config!</p> <p>Basically just like the popular Keepass password manager behaves.</p> <p>Unfortunately I was unable to find a guide, which explains how to accomplish this, so I wrote this article explaining my current method to achieve this functionality! (If you have a better/different way, or any questions, just leave a comment!)</p> <p><a href="https://medium.com/@wondrous_oxblood_cheetah_508/ssh-agent-on-windows-c74b90fb2e31"><strong>Website</strong></a></p>
