can't log onto people.apache.org in order to upload the 10.12.1 release candidate

[Rick Hillegas <ri...@gmail.com>]

The security of committer accounts has been increased. I can no longer 
log onto people.apache.org. I have sent the following message to the 
infrastructure list. Maybe someone on this list can give me advice in 
the meantime:

--------------

I am unable to log onto my people.apache.org account. The following 
command...

   ssh rhillegas@people.apache.org

...gives me this diagnostic...

"Note: logging in to this server with a password has been disabled.

Please see : 
https://blogs.apache.org/infra/entry/committer_shell_access_to_people

Remember to load your ssh key:-

See: http://linux.die.net/man/1/ssh-add
See: http://linux.die.net/man/1/ssh-agent

Permission denied (publickey)."

I have been trying to follow the instructions at 
https://blogs.apache.org/infra/entry/committer_shell_access_to_people 
without any success. I have gone so far as to do the following:

1) Deleted all the files under ~/.ssh

2) Created new credentials thusly...

   ssh-keygen -t rsa

3) Started an ssh agent thusly...

   eval `ssh-agent`

4) Added my identity to the agent thusly...

   ssh-add

Note that that appears to have worked because the following command 
returned status 0...

   echo $?

5) Logged onto https://id.apache.org and successfully recorded the key 
fingerprint from step 2) above. At least I was thrown onto a page with 
this cheerful message:

   "Details change successful"

6) Waited 5 minutes and tried to log onto people.apache.org. But I 
received the original diagnostic.

7) Tried again 10 minutes later. Still no joy.

Any suggestions about what I am doing wrong?

Thanks,
-Rick

Problem fixed. Pilot error. I had registered my fingerprint rather than 
my whole public key at https://id.apache.org. You need to register the 
whole public key, including the trailing machine identifier.

Cheers,
