I probably missed that in my line of thought. I rarely use Savannah, and I just vaguely described what I did to have a pair of keys for signing in. I created them, with no clear memory of how or with what. And after that, i used them. All with the help of some documentation in the site, I think.

I misspoke, because ssh-keygen is not part of gpg, so the correct text would be "You can use ssh-keygen to generate a new keypair, and do not need gpg." At the same time, gpg can interact with ssh, for example using gpg-agent to keep track of ssh keys. It would be more correct for you to say something like "you can use ssh with or without gpg".

So, you check if you still have your private key somewhere. After that, you check this key is being given (in configuration directories or directly in the command line) to the command you use: scp, ssh, or any other software you may use.

Savannah keeps a copy of your "public" key, and expects you to have the "private" half in your .ssh folder. You can use gpg to generate a new keypair. Option 1) If you want to debug why it doesn't work, try repeating the command with the "-v" option. I don't know if scp supports a double "-vv" for even more verbosity. That will provide information about which keys were exchanged etc. You can try: ssh -vvv hjcl...@dl.sv.nongnu.org Option 2) If you don't care too much about why it's not working today, but suspect a missing keypair, then you can generate a new keypair and upload the public key as described here: https://savannah.nongnu.org/maintenance/SshAccess/ Kind regards, Jan
forgot password or misconfiguration
Hi, seems something with my gpg configuration is wrong. When trying to upload a new version, I get an error message: $ scp storeBackup-3.5.1.tar.bz2 hjcl...@dl.sv.nongnu.org:/releases/storebackup hjcl...@dl.sv.nongnu.org's password: Permission denied, please try again. What do I have to do to make it work again? (Last working upload was at April 2014. I have a backup from Jan. 2014. Can I restore something from my old backup to the actual gpg data/config?) Sorry, I'm not that familiar with gpg. Best regards, Heinz-Josef Claes project: storeBackup
