bzr+ssh on Windows?

[Maritza Mendez]

Yes I am aware of the ssh agent approach and pageant in particular.
I'm sure that works well.  But it is one more piece of software to set
up and support for my teams workflow.  I have dozens of potential
users on windows boxes and I need them focused on their work, not on
the tools. I'm actually not sure how much an ssh agent would help
anyway because on  windows  I'm not even being prompted once for my
passphrase. So my preference is to figure out how my windows ssh/rsa
environment differs from linux and address the issue directly.

Thanks
