Hi Jarda,

it seems that you got tripped up by different mail addresses: the one you're
subscribed on this list according to the lists's maintainer Gary Benson is your netbeans.org address, but the one you've sent this mail from is your sun.com
address, so it didn't show up on the list or in the archives. :/

(I can recommend using IRC for this kind of communication problems, as I
was able to quickly find overholt, mjw and gbenson on #fedora-java,
who helped track this one down, and they were very helpful.)

As far as the problem you describe goes, you're right, there are no instructions
to create .ssh/id_dsa on the 'Join' page. If you scroll down to the
'Get a Fedora account part', you'll see a link in the first line to the descrption of the Fedora Account System <http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Infrastructure/AccountSystem>. Clicking on it will take you to http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Infrastructure/AccountSystem which under section
1.4.3 lists


     What is an SSH key, and why do I need one?

SSH <http://openssh.org/> , short for Secure SHell, allows cryptographically authenticated and encrypted connections between computers. SSH is used to tunnel CVS connections for the Fedora Project. Anytime you use CVS with the Fedora Project, the transaction will be performed through an SSH connection. Your SSH key will identify you to the CVS servers, and host keys on the CVS servers will allow your computer to verify the remote server, too. An SSH key is only needed if you are planning on contributing source code, working on Fedora Project website pages or using fedorapeople.org.

See Cryptography <http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Cryptography>

and clicking on the cryptography link will take you to
http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Cryptography , which in turn has a brief
introduction to creating ssh keys at
http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Cryptography#Creating_SSH_Keys

when it comes to uploading the freshly created ssh key to your fedora
account, I hope the way pointed out by david walluck at
https://www.redhat.com/archives/fedora-devel-java-list/2008-May/msg00026.html
still works.

If you run into further trouble, jump on IRC on #fedora-java on Freenode,
and we should be able to help you, and others at the NetBeans team get their
code packaged for Fedora.

mjw (Mark Wielaard) suggested that it's best to work with the sponsor, in your
case that's fitzsim (Tom Fitzsimmons). Feel free to contact me, too!

best of luck,

Hello guys,
I need help with fedora-cvs, it yields:

Error: Permission denied (publickey,keyboard-interactive).
cvs [checkout aborted]: end of file from server (consult above messages
if any)

I guess that will be because missing .ssh directory, but when following
the page
http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/PackageMaintainers/Join
there was no instruction to create .ssh/id_dsa! Or is it there and I am
just too blind to find it?
Please advice.
