[Savannah-hackers] Re: suddenly lost CVS access to subversions.gnu.org

Did anyone see this the first time I sent it?  I haven't seen a
response.  I'm trying to fix a bug in saveplace.el, but I seem to
have lost access to the Emacs CVS tree.

   I've had no trouble using my CVS working copy of project 'emacs'
   before now -- updating and committing worked fine.
   
   Now I can't seem to update:
   
      $ cat CVS/Root
      address@hidden:/cvsroot/emacs
      $ cvs up -dP
      address@hidden's password: ********
      Permission denied, please try again.
      address@hidden's password: ********
      Permission denied, please try again.
      address@hidden's password: ********
      Permission denied (publickey,password,keyboard-interactive).
      cvs [update aborted]: end of file from server \
        (consult above messages if any)
      $ 
   
   It shouldn't be prompting me for a password at all; in the past, it
   never did.  Instead, I would expect it to prompt for my SSH 1
   passphrase (or not prompt at all, since I use ssh-agent).
   
   I haven't changed my SSH public key.  I checked by going to
   
      http://savannah.gnu.org/account/editsshkeys.php
   
   and comparing the key there against my ~/.ssh/identity.pub.  They
   appear to be the same.
   
   Do you have any idea what might be happening?  I was trying to update
   my Emacs tree in order to fix a bug in saveplace.el.
   
   Thank you,
