Details:

Hi there,

I am trying to use my CVS repository without entering my password each time.
I have followed the instructions in the document,
https://savannah.nongnu.org/faq/?group_id=5802&question=User_Account_-_How_do_I_configure_my_SSH_access.txt
and entered the generated key into the form here,
https://savannah.nongnu.org/my/admin/editsshkeys.php

I waited several days and I can now check out my module from my repository.

<pre>
cvs -z3 -d:ext:address@hidden:/sources/chestnut co chestnut
</pre>

However, Savannah still prompts me for a password, which is annoying. When my
key generated in my ~/.ssh/id_dsa.pub is submitted through the Savannah web
interface, it gets copied to the appropriate file in my ~/.ssh directory,
right? If not, how can I get passwordless SSH to work?

Thank you.

Damian
