Details:

Hi,
My project just got recently accepted, but I'm having some problems with cvs
access.
I activated cvs from the project admin page, after that, I generated my ssh
key using:

ssh-keygen -t dsa

I had the keys go in /home/user/.ssh/id_dsa and /home/user/.ssh/id_dsa.pub,
I then copied the key from id_dsa.pub to the online ssh key registry in my
account config.
I waited about an hour, and tried accessing both my web and source directory
here:

for the sources:

export CVS_RSH=ssh

cvs -z3 -d address@hidden:/sources/pyscitrivia co
pyscitrivia

and for the web stuff:

export CVS_RSH=ssh

cvs -z3 -d address@hidden:/web/pyscitrivia co pyscitrivia

Both were prompting me for a password rather than a passphrase, so I left it
alone for a bit,
tried a few hours later, and got the same thing.  I've tried a making a few
different keys, waiting a few hours,
and tried again the next day, and still no luck. 
When I try accessing it now, I'm getting this error instead:

-----------------------------
Permission denied (publickey).
cvs [checkout aborted]: end of file from server (consult above messages if
any)
-----------------------------

Also, here's the output from ssh -v address@hidden:

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

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

So I think I'm just doing something wrong.  Is there something else I need to
do to set up
cvs or ssh on my machine?  Or something else I've forgotten to do first?
I'm a complete noob with cvs and ssh.
There was also someone else with the same problem on the support tracker just
a little while ago, but I've registered my ssh public key with the web
interface.

Sorry if I'm taking up time with something obvious I should have read in the
FAQs.


Thanks in advance :)
