Keychain Setup

Hello,

In the keychain man page there is an example about how to setup keychain for bash shells. It says to put the following code into the ~/.bash_profile:

keychain id_rsa id_dsa 0123ABCD
[[ -f $HOME/.keychain/$HOSTNAME-sh ]] && \
source $HOME/.keychain/$HOSTNAME-sh
[[ -f $HOME/.keychain/$HOSTNAME-sh-gpg ]] && \
source $HOME/.keychain/$HOSTNAME-sh-gpg

If I put that code into the bash_profile I am getting an ask_pass window after login in to KDE, to enter the passphrase for the added keys. But when I enter a new shell and try to log on to that remote computer, it asks me again for the passphrase?

What am I doing wrong that I get asked for the passphrase again?

What do I need to do that I can log on to the remote computer from any shell without having to enter the passphrase everytime new?

TIA
