Hi Cafe! This is not actually a question about Haskell, but it is related. I sent my request and I have now an account in community.haskell.org. When I was going to use my project, I read these instructions: http://community.haskell.org/admin/using_project.html But I stopped in the first step "If you need to use a shell, SSH to community.haskell.org". OK, I don't have too knowledge in SSH, so I searched the web and found "putty" as an SSH client. I downloaded it and tried it. But, sadly, without success. I put this configuration: Host name: community.haskell.org Port: 22 Connection type: SSH And it connects! Then, server asks me for an user name, and, after I put my user name, it throws the following error: "Disconnected: No supported authentication methods available (server sent: publickey)." Uhmmmm... I have no idea of how to avoid this error. Wrong client? Wrong configuration? Well, I have a public key I didn't put anywhere yet (but in the community registration). I guess I'm lacking some authentication, but I don't know how to solve it. I hope someone can give me some pointers! Thanks in advance! And sorry if this is not a strictly-related Haskell question.

This looks relevant: http://www.howtoforge.com/ssh_key_based_logins_putty (first google result for "putty key" sans quotes :p) -- Ivan Lazar Miljenovic Ivan.Miljenovic@gmail.com IvanMiljenovic.wordpress.com

You need to launch the Pageant utility that comes with Putty, and load
your key in it. Then start your putty session, putty will then use
your key, and you'll be able to connect. Once started, Pageant runs in
the system tray.
Hope this helps.

Thanks JP and Ivan for the quick response! Anyway, it seems I lack the private key mentioned (all I have is the public key), and that sounds bad.

When you generated your public key, it would have generated the equivalent private key as well (in the same directory as the public one, without the ".pub" extension). -- Ivan Lazar Miljenovic Ivan.Miljenovic@gmail.com IvanMiljenovic.wordpress.com
