For 10.4, This little script makes sure you have your ssh keys in your shell, with the agent running. SSH agent is already available in 10.5.

if [ -f ~/.agent.env ]; then
  . ~/.agent.env -s > /dev/null

  if ! kill -0 $SSH_AGENT_PID > /dev/null 2>&1; then
    echo
    echo "Stale agent file found.  Spawning new agent..."
    eval `ssh-agent -s | tee ~/.agent.env`
    ssh-add
  fi
else
  echo "Starting ssh-agent..."
  eval `ssh-agent -s | tee ~/.agent.env`
  ssh-add
fi

In terminal,

sudo defaults write /Library/Preferences/com.apple.loginwindow DesktopPicture "/Library/Desktop Pictures/Plants/Leaves.jpg"

There, that’s better.
