<!-- ==================== CLASS DESCRIPTION ==================== -->
<h1 class="epydoc">Class Agent</h1><p class="nomargin-top"><span class="codelink"><a href="paramiko-pysrc.html#Agent">source code</a></span></p>
<p>Client interface for using private keys from an SSH agent running on
the local machine. If an SSH agent is running, this class can be used to
connect to it and retreive <a href="paramiko.PKey-class.html"
class="link">PKey</a> objects which can be used when attempting to
authenticate to remote SSH servers.</p>
<p>Because the SSH agent protocol uses environment variables and
unix-domain sockets, this probably doesn't work on Windows. It does work
on most posix platforms though (Linux and MacOS X, for example).</p>
