"Pam_ssh_agent" is a PAM module that generates an ssh-agent and includes identities utilizing a login password.
I recently tested the PAM module called pam_ssh_agent, and found it to be quite useful for managing ssh identities. This module spawns a ssh-agent upon login and adds your identities using the password you supplied at login time. This is an excellent way to manage ssh identities without having to remember passphrases for each key.
The only requirements for pam_ssh_agent is that you have keychain installed and that you add pam_ssh_agent.so to your /etc/pam.d/system-auth file or to every service you want to enable pam_ssh_agent for.
Overall, I would highly recommend this module for anyone looking to manage ssh identities more efficiently. With the added convenience of password-based identity management, this is a must-have module for any sysadmin or developer working with ssh keys regularly.
