Add new method of generating a ssh key as minotaur fails to execute ssh-keygen
lately.

h3. Setup mvn to work with your apache account
h4. Generate an authorised dsa/rsa key
Logon to {{minotaur.apache.org}} using your apache id and run:
{code}
$ ssh-keygen -t dsa
{code}
Give it some file name eg {{mysshkey}} and a pass phrase. This should create
two files, a private key and a public key ({{mysshkey}}, {{mysshkey.pub}}).
Copy {{mysshkey.pub}} to {{~/.ssh/authorised_keys}}. (you may need to create
the .ssh directory), and scp the private key to you local machine.
*OR*
Use {{ssh-keygen}} to create a SSH key locally using shell or cygwin:
{code}
$ ssh-keygen -t rsa -b 4096
{code}
The keys will be saved in {{~/.ssh/id_dsa}} (private) and {{~/.ssh/id_dsa.pub}}
(public).
{{scp}} your SSH public key {{~/.ssh/id_dsa.pub}} created in last step to
{{~/id_dsa.pub}} on {{people.apache.org}}.
{code}
$ scp ~/.ssh/id_dsa.pub <your userid>@people.apache.org:.
{code}
Login to people.apache.org
{code}
$ ssh <your userid>@people.apache.org
{code}
Create a {{~/.ssh}} folder in your home directory on {{people.apache.org}} and
change its file mode to 700.
{code}
$ mkdir ~/.ssh
$ chmod 700 ~/.ssh
{code}
Move or append {{~/id_dsa.pub}} to {{~/.ssh/authorized_keys}} and change its
file mode to 600.
{code}
$ mv ~/id_dsa.pub ~/.ssh/authorized_keys
$ chmod 600 ~/.ssh/authorized_keys
{code}
h4. Update Maven settings
At this point you should be able to ssh into {{people.apache.org}} without
being prompted for a password.
In your maven {{settings.xml}} file (located in the .m2 folder in your home
dir, eg {{C:\Documents and Settings\ant\.m2}}) add servers for the servers you
use and specify you apache id, the location of the ssh key you just scp'd and
the pass phrase you used when creating that key, eg:
{code:xml}
<servers>
<server>
<id>apache.incubator</id>
<username>antelder</username>
<privateKey>file-path-of-private-key</privateKey>
<passphrase>xxx</passphrase>
<directoryPermissions>775</directoryPermissions>
<filePermissions>664</filePermissions>
</server>
<server>
<id>me.people</id>
<username>antelder</username>
<privateKey>file-path-of-private-key</privateKey>
<passphrase>xxx</passphrase>
<directoryPermissions>775</directoryPermissions>
<filePermissions>664</filePermissions>
</server>
<server>
<id>apache.snapshots</id>
<username>antelder</username>
<privateKey>file-path-of-private-key</privateKey>
<passphrase>xxx</passphrase>
<directoryPermissions>775</directoryPermissions>
<filePermissions>664</filePermissions>
</server>
<server>
<id>apache.rsync</id>
<username>antelder</username>
<privateKey>file-path-of-private-key</privateKey>
<passphrase>xxx</passphrase>
<directoryPermissions>775</directoryPermissions>
<filePermissions>664</filePermissions>
</server>
</servers>
{code}
Keep the ssh key and pass phrase safe and secure. Its a good idea to only add
the key and passphrase to the settings.xml file while you're actually using it
and delete form the file at other times. Also you MUST delete the private ssh
key from your Apache directory once you've ftp'd it to your local machine.
