Trouble setting up SSH

I've been following the instructions at:
http://www.apache.org/dev/new-committers-guide.html#ssh-setup and
ftp://ftp.meisei-u.ac.jp/mirror/content/dev/.svn/text-base/user-ssh-windows.html.svn-base#overview
and
using the information at
https://blogs.apache.org/infra/entry/committer_shell_access_to_people, but
I am still having trouble connecting to people.apache.org.

I have generated keys and copied the public key to my LDAP data at
https://id.apache.org. I waited more than 10 minutes, but got a Permission
Denied (publickey) error. I ran ssh-add and tried again, but got the same
message.

Does anyone have any suggestions, or can you point me at more resources?
I've also been searching Stack Overflow and other generic Internet
resources, but have not found anything to help. Is it possible that my
account has yet to be created?

I am an SSH newbie, so maybe there is something else I am missing. Any help
is appreciated.

Thanks,

Gale

Hi Gale - sorry, I'm not a Windows users.

IIRC Putty private keys are different format from OpenSSL and that -v 
output looks like OpenSSL. option.

Hmm - this maybe:
There's some kind of "export to OpenSSL" according to

http://serverfault.com/questions/194567/how-do-i-tell-git-for-windows-where-to-find-my-private-rsa-key

Re: Trouble setting up SSH

@Andy - I was able to connect using PuTTY, but still cannot connect via the
command line.
FYI, I am using GitBash on Windows, but can still do ssh -v. I can append
the whole session transcript, but it seems that the relevant section is:

>debug1: Authentications that can continue: publickey
>debug1: Next authentication method: publickey

>debug1: No more authentication methods to try.
>Permission denied (publickey).

I think I figured out that I don't have my private key saved in the right
place. I tried a couple of things, but neither worked yet, so I'll have to
try again tomorrow.

@Ian - so, you haven't needed an SSH key? I just created and uploaded a PGP
key. I'll have to try tomorrow (PST) to see if I can make any commits.

Thanks!

Gale

Hello,

I don't think I added an ssh key and I haven't seemed to need one so
far. At least I can't see one listed in my account details at
id.apache.org. I have added my PGP public fingerprint.

Cheers,

Ian

(if you are using linux or OS/X):

What does "ssh -v" say?

It will show which keys it is trying.
