293805 - Need account to push NSS and NSPR builds to ftp.m.o

Status: RESOLVED FIXED

(mozilla.org :: FTP: Staging, task)

Description

[Nelson Bolyard (seldom reads bugmail)]

I'm an 8+ year veteran developer of NSS, a.k.a. "MisterSSL".
In the past, the NSS/NSPR team has always had a release engineer to do 
the pushes of the built/released bits to ftp.mozilla.org.  Now, our
release engineer is on vacation for a while, and we need to push some
NSS and NSPR builds to ftp.mozilla.org.  

I have an ssh account on cvs.mozilla.org and would like to use the same
account name and public key for ftp as I use on cvs, if possible. 
Please advise.

Myk or Chase -- can you vouch? 

Nelson: I don't have access to cvs.mozilla.org, so if you can attach your public
key to this bug and let me know what username you prefer, I can make you an
account on stage.mozilla.org, the ftp staging server.

I vouch for Nelson.

Oh, as for account name, nelsonb is preferred.  nelson is also OK.

What else is needed before this request can be honored?  
I guess we could wait for our release engineer to come back from vacation
to complete pushing the NSS 3.10 and NSPR 4.5.1 bits. :(

Sorry about that. I was sick for a few days and this got lost in the shuffle. 

Acount nelsonb has been created on stage.mozilla.org with your public key. Go
ahead and try to login and let me know if you have any trouble. I added you to
the security group which should allow you to make the changes you need, but if
you have any permissions problems let me know and I'll do my best to sort it
out. The ftp directory is located at /home/ftp/pub. Please make sure to set
permissions and group settings on your builds as appropriate. 

Let me know if you have any questions,

Sorry to hear you were ill.   No joy with stfp login.

sftp  [e-mail]
Connecting to stage.mozilla.org...
Permission denied (publickey,keyboard-interactive).
Connection closed

never prompts me for ssh priv-key password.   
Do you want the debug output?

same ssh setup still works for cvs.mozilla.org

[Zach Lipton [:zach]]

Hrmm that's odd. Go ahead and try again now. If it doesn't work, debug output
would be appreciated.

Attachment: sftp debug output

attachment shows behavior of sftp command, both without and with debug.
Basically, it never gets to the point where it prompts me for my password.

That output looks a lot like an SECSH format key got pasted in without
converting it to OpenSSH format first...

confirmed.  I just converted it, give it a try now.

Comment 11

[Nelson Bolyard (seldom reads bugmail)]

That fixed it.  Thanks!

(Suggestion, add the conversion steps you did as a comment to this bug, for
the benefit of future admins. )

I dropped a script called "convertsecshkey.pl" into /root/bin on manna (copied
over from megalon where we use it for the cvs accounts).

Just run that script, then paste in the SECSH key, then hit control-D, and it'll
output an openssh key.
