Apologies for my continued stumbling around with this. I'm enough of a newbie in several necessary skills that I can't seem to get a handle on what's going wrong.

I had assumed that having sent my "SSH key for upload access", it goes to the same location as my original key supplied on the sourceware.org/cgi-bin/pdw/ps_form.cgi form. That original key I supplied always provoked an 'enter passphrase' prompt when ssh or git contacted sourceware even though I had never supplied a passphrase for it. OK, maybe sourceware requires passphrases so I generated a new key with a passphrase. That's the key I sent recently as "SSH key for upload access".

The only way I could think of to test authentication without doing anything potentially damaging was this command:
    ssh -v -v mgeis...@sourceware.org appendkey < /dev/null

Here's the resulting debug log:

Can anybody reading this see a any evidence of what's amiss?
Thanks much,
