Hello all,
I solved the problem.
I used the method explained below with an addition which I came up with last
night.
I added a dsa key along with the rsa key
and changed the line: *IdentityFile ~/.ssh/id_rsa*
to* IdentityFile ~/.ssh/id_dsa*
*
*
before i went to sleep and this morning it worked!
However I kept the *.kde.org
<http://kde.org/>and user name unchanged.
Strange tough that there seems to be no commonly working method.
Any ways thanks for you replies.
Regards,
Samuel
