-agent
and -noagent
: control use of Pageant for authentication
The -agent
option turns on SSH authentication using Pageant, and -noagent
turns it off. These options are only meaningful if you are using SSH.
See chapter 9 for general information on Pageant.
These options are equivalent to the agent authentication checkbox in the Auth panel of the PuTTY configuration box (see section 4.20.2).
