I'll try replying on the Adelphia server instead of the Worldnet server
and see if this shows up :-).

I tried this, and there is an ssh-agent running now, and kermit will accept
an ssh agent add command which prompts me for my passphrase, then
always says SSH_AGENT_FAILURE. If I try to run the add command
again, it says it could not open a connection to the agent (yet task manager
shows it still running).
If I just open the ssh connection, it prompts for the passphrase again
(but this time with a dialog box rather than a text mode like prompt),
and that works fine.
I tried it several times, and I don't think I could have mis-typed my
passphrase every time :-).
I'm still on Windows XP Pro.
