In searching for info I keep getting references to ssh-agent being

Here's one way to do it - the brute force solution.
Look under
Applications -> Internet -> SSH Ask Pass
then right click and add it to your panel.
Then right click on the icon in the panel, select properties, then
change the command
/usr/bin/ssh-add
to
/usr/bin/ssh-add -t <time>
I do not find any "SSH Ask Pass" under Applications -> Internet.
This is on a pretty much default install of Fedora 10. What are
you running?
When I execute ssh-add in a terminal session, I get
$ /usr/bin/ssh-add -t 60
Enter passphrase for /home/rnichols/.ssh/id_rsa:
[I enter the correct passphrase here]
SSH_AGENT_FAILURE
Identity added: /home/rnichols/.ssh/id_rsa (/home/rnichols/.ssh/id_rsa)
Thereafter, ssh happily without requiring a passphrase, and that
capability does _not_ time out.
Thanks for the effort, but that doesn't help at all.
