I'm having difficulty geting ssh-agent to work -- I believe it is an ntsec
issue. I've enabled ntsec and have the ability to chown and chmod. When I
instantiate ssh-agent it creates /tmp/ssh-reagle but fails to write a PID.

By deafult I get a ssh-agent exit of "bind: permission denied error"

If I:
chmod 1777 /tmp
chmod 1777 /ssh-reagle
I get a bad modes error on /tmp/ssh-reagle

If I:
chmod 1777 /tmp
chmod 1700 /tmp/ssh-reagle
I get a ssh-agent exit of "bind: permission denied error" (nor can I cd into
ssh-reagle ...?)
