Hi,

Hi,

Can we fix this though? This seems to happen on a regular basis and it is slightly annoying :)

Yep.

But where do this d*** "authentication failures" come from!?

Where can I look?

Hello Matthias,

thanks for your reply.

Since I just happened to be around here due to various things (fixing ghostscript, binutils and hyperscan, plus doing some research on outdated TLS connections from and to our mail systems for good measure), I unblocked your IP address again.

It seems as your logins trigger a lot of authentication failures - perhaps because your SSH client has multiple keys present and tries to log into people.ipfire.org with each of them, thus causing several failed attempts at once?

Either way: Sorry for the inconvenience. :-/

Thanks, and best regards, Peter Müller

Hi, once again - all of a sudden - while working at it...: ... root@Devel32: /home/matz/ipfire-2.x # git pull origin next ssh: connect to host git.ipfire.org port 22: Cannot assign requested address fatal: Could not read from remote repository. Please make sure you have the correct access rights and the repository exists. ... Could someone please give the "security system" a kick from me? Best, Matthias

I can give that back: thanks for your (fast!) help...! ;-)

Looks like I got lucky...its working again, indeed.

Hm. "Authentication failures". How did these happen!? Wondering...

My "SSL-clients" were two of my 'Devel'-machines, both running Ubuntu (32 / 64 bit). At the moment I don't know were to look for "multiple keys". The only connections I'm aware of were the ones needed for GIT. I got no error messages, nothing. It just stopped working. Were should I look?

I just had an idea: Once in a while I'm working here with up to three development machines at the same time - each on different branches and software packets. Could that be the reason?

That is absolutely standard and should work :)

No problem. No risk, no fun... ;-)
