RE: [Open-discuss] SSH Access Issues

Hi Sridhar,
 
I have had similar issues earlier with my key pairs. Follow the steps
that Rishi has mentioned in the mail below, I generated my key with rsa
instead of dsa and its only then when it worked for me. I would suggest
you try that out as well. Incase that works then we might have to update
the quick start guide.

Hi Sridhar,.

Generally, if the cvs/ssh system is asking you for a password, it means
that the private key on your machine is not matching up with the public
key that you stored on helixcommunity.org.

>From your log, it seems that the dsa private key does not exist on your
system. This is what I would suggest.
1.Clear up all keys from your $HOME/.ssh 
2. Follow steps 8 -11 from
https://common.helixcommunity.org/2004/devdocs/quickstart

Please continue to use DSA encryption only and please wait at least 1 hr
after you update the key.

-Rishi.

Hi,

I have been trying to get the helix-server source to install it on my
machine. I am running Windows XP and using cygwin.

I have uploaded the public keys (I have tried RSA2 and DSA), but I am
not able to successfully login without it prompting me for a password.
It is not a question of it needing time to update the SSH keys, I have
given it time. Here's the debug log when I try ssh -vvv -l sridharb
cvs.helixcommunity.org

You will see that it logs in eventually, but only after I enter in the
password. What is the problem here and how can I get past this?

Since I am not a member, could you please Cc your replies to this
address as well?

Thanks,
Sridhar
