Details:

I was unable to answer my previous support request in time, so it got closed.
But I still have the same problem. Here is the problem description:

I am unable to upload files to the Download Area using scp.

Currently I am just trying to upload a test/dummy file:

scp test.txt address@hidden:/releases/fnm/

This is the output I get:

Permission denied (publickey).
lost connection

I have also tried using sftp the following way:

sftp address@hidden:/releases/fnm

Which results in the following output:

Connecting to dl.sv.gnu.org...
Permission denied (publickey).
Couldn't read packet: Connection reset by peer

This is what I have done before trying to use sftp and scp:

I have generated a ssh-key by running:

ssh-keygen -t dsa

I have added the key here:

http://savannah.gnu.org/my/admin/editsshkeys.php

I have also run "ssh-add" and waited for more than one hour before trying to
use sftp and scp.

It is apparently good to provide the output from the following command:

ssh -v address@hidden

So here it is :)
