Follow-up Comment #2, sr #110545 (project administration): Thank you very much for the prompt reply.
While I was following the debugging steps on the SshAccess page <https://savannah.gnu.org/maintenance/SshAccess/>, I noticed that my key gets recognized by the CVS server, but not the SSH server. In other words, the first command below prints the expected output in the SshAccess page, but the second command, doesn't recognize my public key and asks for my git.savannah.gnu.org password (the only difference between the two commands is the 'cvs' and 'git' before '.savannah'): $ ssh makhla...@cvs.savannah.gnu.org You tried to execute: Sorry, you are not allowed to execute that command. Connection to cvs.savannah.gnu.org closed. $ ssh makhla...@git.savannah.gnu.org makhla...@git.savannah.gnu.org's password: So I tried running both commands with the '-v' option and noticed that they are actually connecting two different operating systems with different versions of OpenSSH, and different algorithms (and possibly other different settings), see below for relevant parts I could see a difference: $ ssh -v makhla...@cvs.savannah.gnu.org ... debug1: compat_banner: match: OpenSSH_7.4p1 Debian-10+deb9u7 pat OpenSSH_7.4* compat 0x04000006 ... debug1: kex: algorithm: curve25519-sha256 ... debug1: Offering public key: /path/to/my/key/id_rsa RSA SHA256:XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX agent debug1: Server accepts key: /path/to/my/key/id_rsa RSA SHA256:XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX agent ... $ ssh -v makhla...@git.savannah.gnu.org ... debug1: compat_banner: match: OpenSSH_6.6.1p1 Trisquel_GNU/linux_7.0-1 pat OpenSSH_6.6.1* compat 0x04000002 ... debug1: kex: algorithm: curve25519-sha...@libssh.org ... debug1: Offering public key: /path/to/my/key/id_rsa RSA SHA256:XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX agent debug1: send_pubkey_test: no mutual signature algorithm ... So I think the problem lies in the Savannah Git server (because my network and OS settings work perfectly fine with the CVS server). But please let me know if any other output from the SSH command can be helpful in debugging this? _______________________________________________________ Reply to this item at: <https://savannah.nongnu.org/support/?110545> _______________________________________________ Message sent via Savannah https://savannah.nongnu.org/
