I am a new member. I used the name Andrew Pitonyak. I failed to use git to obtain the latest copy of the documentation $ git clone ssh://AndrewPitonyak@xxxxxxxxxxxxx/git/gimp-help-2 Initialized empty Git repository in /andrew0/home/andy/Devsrc/Gimp/DocDev/gimp-help-2/.git/ Permission denied (publickey). fatal: The remote end hung up unexpectedly I used ssh -v to check for possible reasons: $ ssh -v AndrewPitonyak@xxxxxxxxxxxxx OpenSSH_5.1p1, OpenSSL 0.9.8g 19 Oct 2007 debug1: Reading configuration data /andrew0/home/andy/.ssh/config debug1: Reading configuration data /etc/ssh/ssh_config debug1: Applying options for * debug1: Connecting to git.gnome.org [209.132.176.202] port 22. debug1: Connection established. debug1: identity file /andrew0/home/andy/.ssh/identity type -1 debug1: identity file /andrew0/home/andy/.ssh/id_rsa type 1 debug1: identity file /andrew0/home/andy/.ssh/id_dsa type 2 debug1: Remote protocol version 2.0, remote software version OpenSSH_4.3 debug1: match: OpenSSH_4.3 pat OpenSSH_4* debug1: Enabling compatibility mode for protocol 2.0 debug1: Local version string SSH-2.0-OpenSSH_5.1 debug1: SSH2_MSG_KEXINIT sent debug1: SSH2_MSG_KEXINIT received debug1: kex: server->client aes128-cbc hmac-md5 none debug1: kex: client->server aes128-cbc hmac-md5 none debug1: SSH2_MSG_KEX_DH_GEX_REQUEST(1024<1024<8192) sent debug1: expecting SSH2_MSG_KEX_DH_GEX_GROUP debug1: SSH2_MSG_KEX_DH_GEX_INIT sent debug1: expecting SSH2_MSG_KEX_DH_GEX_REPLY debug1: Host 'git.gnome.org' is known and matches the RSA host key. debug1: Found key in /andrew0/home/andy/.ssh/known_hosts:3 debug1: ssh_rsa_verify: signature correct debug1: SSH2_MSG_NEWKEYS sent debug1: expecting SSH2_MSG_NEWKEYS debug1: SSH2_MSG_NEWKEYS received debug1: SSH2_MSG_SERVICE_REQUEST sent debug1: SSH2_MSG_SERVICE_ACCEPT received debug1: Authentications that can continue: publickey debug1: Next authentication method: publickey debug1: Offering public key: /andrew0/home/andy/.ssh/id_dsa debug1: Authentications that can continue: publickey debug1: Offering public key: /andrew0/home/andy/.ssh/id_rsa debug1: Authentications that can continue: publickey debug1: Trying private key: /andrew0/home/andy/.ssh/identity debug1: No more authentication methods to try. Permission denied (publickey). Must I do something specific so that my newly created username AndrewPitonyak (user name for live.gnome.org) will work with my newly created id_dsa or id_rsa. Note that I did set the permissions to 600 for the files and 700 for ~/.ssh itself. I have not done anything with github, if that is required. -- Andrew Pitonyak My Macro Document: http://www.pitonyak.org/AndrewMacro.odt My Book: http://www.hentzenwerke.com/catalog/oome.htm Info: http://www.pitonyak.org/oo.php See Also: http://documentation.openoffice.org/HOW_TO/index.html _______________________________________________ Gimp-docs mailing list Gimp-docs@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx https://lists.XCF.Berkeley.EDU/mailman/listinfo/gimp-docs
