[savannah-help-public] [sr #109407] ssh fails: Too many authentication failures

[Bob Proulx]

Follow-up Comment #1, sr #109407 (project administration):

Hello Joerg. When ssh reports too many authentication failures it means that
your client is providing too many failing keys.  This means that you probably
have many keys loaded into your ssh-agent.  You can see this with 'ssh-add -l'
or 'ssh-add -L'.  And with 'ssh -v' it should show these repeated key offers.

You can debug using ssh directly.  That will be blocked by the security that
says only vcs commands.  That's okay.  But the handshake debug is useful.

ssh -v svn.savannah.gnu.org true

At that point there are various things you can do to make this work.
