Configuring iceberg on Windows

Hi Andrei,  Could you be specific about which tutorial that was.  I'm not sure if I'm just getting by on old knowledge

or the much improved Iceberg UI and its good to refresh myself with such tutorials.

 

and provided IceCredentialProvider with ssh settings, also put the same settings in Settings-Tools-Software Configuration Management. 

It seems not to have any effect since when I try to create a repo using SSH it gives the error "Failed to connect to github.com".

I need to get past that error since I get it even when I install Moose via Metacello.

Do I need to add ssh-agent as well? If yes, why do we need to provide public/private key paths with IceCredentialProvider?

In the past I had github+ssh working on Windows with "Use custom SSH keys" enabled"

but then a while ago it stopped for "no apparent reason"(TM).  Co-incidentally a few hours ago I solved my problem.

I went back to basics checking from command line per... https://help.github.com/articles/testing-your-ssh-connection/

and found  ```ssh -T [hidden email]``` erroring with...

Permissions for 'C:\\Users\\Ben/.ssh/id_rsa' are too open.

It is required that your private key files are NOT accessible by others.

This private key will be ignored.

Load key "C:\\Users\\Ben/.ssh/id_rsa": bad permissions

[hidden email]: Permission denied (publickey).

I right-clicked on my folder C:\Users\ben\.ssh
then Properties > Security > Advanced > Disable Inheritance
then removed SYSTEM, Administrator & Administrators leaving only BEN.

Then this worked...

C:>ssh -T [hidden email]

Hi bencoman! You've successfully authenticated, but GitHub does not provide shell access.

And now also worked from within Pharo (with "Use custom SSH keys" enabled")

HTH, cheers -ben

Note that Moose depends on projects that are on github, so if it is misconfigured, then it will fail.

Maybe you can provide both the ssh key and regular key/password? I use both and so far I had no problems on neither Windows nor Linux.
