Hi Stef,

You don't have to put any further effort into this.
The solution I found is working for me.

The keypoint about ssh passwords is that you don't store them on disk.
So if anyone get's access to your filesystem (or disk) he still can't
use the key.

What you describe is used to keep samba passwords up to date AFAIK.

I'd rather spend time on updating the HOWTO or creating a wiki.
But I don't know how to contact the maintainer. I wrote that in another
mail recently..
