But say you did want to automatically enable all ssh keys on login…

I launch my ssh enabled shell on demand, but if you are comfortable leaving it open (or using ssh-add -x to manually lock your ssh keys) add this to your startup file (.bash_profile or whatever):
eval `ssh-agent -s`; ssh-add
You’ll need to enter your password when you start the shell, but afterwards you’ve got all the password-less ssh goodness you can stand.
passwordless???!
*gasp!*
i just do the lazy person’s config of this: log into ssh shell as root on some random machine(s) and walk away. ;)
Heh! BOFH!
BOFH FTW!
