Stopping the key manager from unlocking ssh keys

[Gorf]

Is there a way to stop the key ring manager from prompting me to "unlock" my SSH RSA key and importing it every time I use it? It's a real pain in the **** to have to click deny to the pop up every single time I try to ssh to a host. I just want it to ignore my access attempts to my SSH key.

Thoughts?

The good news :):

I did manage to get it done, and now my key manager is silent when i use ssh


The bad news:(:

I had to play so much that I'm not sure what step got it "not working"

My best guess is that I changed the key file.

This will rename the key
mv ~/.ssh/id_rsa ~/.ssh/id_rsa_b

than with nano you create a config file to redirect ssh to the new key
nano ~/.ssh/config

enter the following lines.
Host *
IdentityFile ~/.ssh/id_rsa_b


Now all your ssh session will try the id_rsa_b key and I think user agent is only listening to id_rsa.

For more information about the ssh config file:
man ssh_config

If it works please come back to tell us I would like to have a comfirmation that it's indeed a usable fix.
