#1139 svn+ssh on Windoze
Closed: Fixed None Opened 15 years ago by terry.

svn+ssh used to work but I haven't tried to commit in the last six months. Yesterday I uploaded a new private key but I still can't connect to svn+ssh://svn.fedorahosted.org/svn/aplaws/trunk/ today. I get the "svn: Connection closed unexpectedly" after 3 attempts. I tried to debug this using ssh -v terry@svn.fedorahosted.org to see what is going on. Please see the attached log.

When I did a search for the "WARNING: UNPROTECTED PRIVATE KEY FILE!" the responses say to either change the permissions of the id_rsa file (not possible on Windoze) or to turn off StrictModes on the server. Any ideas?

Note that the cvsadmin's have nothing to do with a SVN repo on fedorahosted.

Changing priority.

Changing component.

You should still be able to do proper permissions in windows. StrictModes actually refers to the public key on the server, not your private key.

You should go to an openssh list or #openssh on irc.freenode.net to find out more information on how to use openssh for windows.

This could be denyhosts, come to look at it. What IP are you trying to come from so that I can in in /etc/hosts.deny?

Is this still a problem?

The java-based svnkit works on Windoze. Thanks!
