Box-Admins Team Report for April, 2009
by Ken Causey 08 May '09

08 May '09

The box-admins team is reponsible for seeing that the community shared server is maintained and setting up any new features to be hosted on that server. For April, 2009: Nothing much to report for last month. The community server continues to purr along and has been up now for 198 days. I want to thank the community for the monetary support needed to fund the server and remind you that the bills continue to appear and that you can currently contribute to the hosting costs by going to http://www.squeak.org/Foundation/SupportSqueak/ and purchasing a Squeak badge. Note that a donation here may be used for other Squeak community services including but not limited to development, development infrastructure, and promotion of Squeak. The services being hosted have continued to grow and include (but are not limited to): http://www.squeak.org/ SqueakMap - http://map.squeak.org/ http://ftp.squeak.org/ http://lists.squeakfoundation.org/ http://source.squeakfoundation.org/ http://map.squeak.org/ https://svn.squeak.org/ http://update.squeakfoundation.org/ http://wiki.squeak.org/ http://bugs.squeak.org/ and DNS services for squeak.org and squeakfoundation.org domain names.

Please please please, find something in your native language about the basics of ssh and asymmetric keys and encryption. If your ssh client is setup correctly then your key set IS the authentication mechanism and the server does NOT ask for a password. However as mentioned before if you set a pass-phrase on your key set when you generated it then you will need to provide that; but the request is local, it is not coming from the server and I have no control over it. Let me give some examples: If I try to connect to a system or account where I have not installed a public key I get a request like: $ ssh joe(a)squeak.org Password: This is a request for a password that has been set on the server. But: $ ssh kencausey(a)squeak.org Enter passphrase for key '/home/ken/.ssh/id_dsa': This is the way it should look and this is a request for the pass-phrase you supplied when you created the key set. If you see the first then you have not installed your private key correctly or are trying to access the wrong account. If instead you are seeing the second then if it is not working then you are supplying the wrong pass-phrase and I can't do anything about that. Ken On Mon, 2009-05-04 at 16:45 -0300, Edgar J.

When you created the ssh keys it asked you for a pass-phrase to associate with the private key. Whenever you then attempt to use the key, as you are now, it requires that you specify the pass-phrase. This restricts access to the private key to only those that know the proper pass-phrase. Are you specifying the pass-phrase that you used when you created the keys?
