Hi there, I hope that everyone is doing well. I’m wondering if anybody else has run into this? I’ve been trying to setup my ssh keys so that I can clone spaces etc. directly via ssh and not have to input my token everytime I want to push via HTTP. I’ve generated the appropriate keys, and have added the .pub file contents to my account under the SSH keys section. This all seems to go well. When I try to run ssh -T git@hf.co I still get the output Hi anonymous, welcome to Hugging Face. if I run with -v I get the following: OpenSSH_8.9p1 Ubuntu-3ubuntu0.7, OpenSSL 3.0.2 15 Mar 2022 debug1: Reading configuration data /home/first_name/.ssh/config debug1: /home/first_name/.ssh/config line 1: Applying options for * debug1: Reading configuration data /etc/ssh/ssh_config debug1: /etc/ssh/ssh_config line 19: include /etc/ssh/ssh_config.d/*.conf matched no files debug1: /etc/ssh/ssh_config line 21: Applying options for * debug1: Connecting to hf.co [3.210.66.237] port 22. debug1: Connection established. debug1: identity file /home/first_name/.ssh/id_rsa type -1 debug1: identity file /home/first_name/.ssh/id_rsa-cert type -1 debug1: identity file /home/first_name/.ssh/id_ecdsa type -1 debug1: identity file /home/first_name/.ssh/id_ecdsa-cert type -1 debug1: identity file /home/first_name/.ssh/id_ecdsa_sk type -1 debug1: identity file /home/first_name/.ssh/id_ecdsa_sk-cert type -1 debug1: identity file /home/first_name/.ssh/id_ed25519 type 3 debug1: identity file /home/first_name/.ssh/id_ed25519-cert type -1 debug1: identity file /home/first_name/.ssh/id_ed25519_sk type -1 debug1: identity file /home/first_name/.ssh/id_ed25519_sk-cert type -1 debug1: identity file /home/first_name/.ssh/id_xmss type -1 debug1: identity file /home/first_name/.ssh/id_xmss-cert type -1 debug1: identity file /home/first_name/.ssh/id_dsa type -1 debug1: identity file /home/first_name/.ssh/id_dsa-cert type -1 debug1: Local version string SSH-2.0-OpenSSH_8.9p1 Ubuntu-3ubuntu0.7 debug1: Remote protocol version 2.0, remote software version Huggingface-SSHD debug1: compat_banner: no match: Huggingface-SSHD debug1: Authenticating to hf.co:22 as 'git' debug1: load_hostkeys: fopen /home/first_name/.ssh/known_hosts2: No such file or directory debug1: load_hostkeys: fopen /etc/ssh/ssh_known_hosts: No such file or directory debug1: load_hostkeys: fopen /etc/ssh/ssh_known_hosts2: No such file or directory debug1: SSH2_MSG_KEXINIT sent debug1: SSH2_MSG_KEXINIT received debug1: kex: algorithm: curve25519-sha256 debug1: kex: host key algorithm: ssh-ed25519 debug1: kex: server->client cipher: chacha20-poly1305@openssh.com MAC: compression: none debug1: kex: client->server cipher: chacha20-poly1305@openssh.com MAC: compression: none debug1: expecting SSH2_MSG_KEX_ECDH_REPLY debug1: SSH2_MSG_KEX_ECDH_REPLY received debug1: Server host key: ssh-ed25519 SHA256:dVjzGIdV7d6cwKIeZiCoRMa2gMvSKfGZAvHf4gMiMao debug1: load_hostkeys: fopen /home/first_name/.ssh/known_hosts2: No such file or directory debug1: load_hostkeys: fopen /etc/ssh/ssh_known_hosts: No such file or directory debug1: load_hostkeys: fopen /etc/ssh/ssh_known_hosts2: No such file or directory debug1: Host 'hf.co' is known and matches the ED25519 host key. debug1: Found key in /home/first_name/.ssh/known_hosts:1 debug1: ssh_packet_send2_wrapped: resetting send seqnr 3 debug1: rekey out after 134217728 blocks debug1: SSH2_MSG_NEWKEYS sent debug1: expecting SSH2_MSG_NEWKEYS debug1: ssh_packet_read_poll2: resetting read seqnr 3 debug1: SSH2_MSG_NEWKEYS received debug1: rekey in after 134217728 blocks debug1: get_agent_identities: agent returned 1 keys debug1: Will attempt key: first_name Svendsen_AWS RSA SHA256:REDACTED_KEY_GDLg agent debug1: Will attempt key: /home/first_name/.ssh/id_rsa debug1: Will attempt key: /home/first_name/.ssh/id_ecdsa debug1: Will attempt key: /home/first_name/.ssh/id_ecdsa_sk debug1: Will attempt key: /home/first_name/.ssh/id_ed25519 ED25519 SHA256:REDACTED_KEY_YmK4e debug1: Will attempt key: /home/first_name/.ssh/id_ed25519_sk debug1: Will attempt key: /home/first_name/.ssh/id_xmss debug1: Will attempt key: /home/first_name/.ssh/id_dsa debug1: SSH2_MSG_EXT_INFO received debug1: kex_input_ext_info: server-sig-algs= debug1: kex_input_ext_info: ping@openssh.com (unrecognised) debug1: SSH2_MSG_SERVICE_ACCEPT received debug1: Authentications that can continue: publickey debug1: Next authentication method: publickey debug1: Offering public key: first_name Svendsen_AWS RSA SHA256:REDACTED_KEY_GDLg agent debug1: Server accepts key: first_name Svendsen_AWS RSA SHA256:REDACTED_KEY_GDLg agent Authenticated to hf.co ([3.210.66.237]:22) using "publickey". debug1: channel 0: new [client-session] debug1: Entering interactive session. debug1: pledge: filesystem debug1: Sending environment. debug1: channel 0: setting env LANG = "en_CA.UTF-8" debug1: client_input_channel_req: channel 0 rtype exit-status reply 0 Hi anonymous, welcome to Hugging Face. debug1: channel 0: free: client-session, nchannels 1 Transferred: sent 2828, received 1772 bytes, in 0.1 seconds Bytes per second: sent 37036.0, received 23206.5 debug1: Exit status 0 Looking through the output, it does look like the keys have been accepted, and that I SHOULD be connected, but for some reason I am still anon.

Same issue: [image] I'm brand new to HF, added my SSH key, cannot push to Spaces repo Spaces Hello, this is my first time using HuggingFace (I’ve been using GitHub for a long time), and I’m super excited to push code repos with live examples! I added my SSH key in settings, but it will not let me push to my new Spaces repo. Here’s my new account: trusktr (Joe Pea) I can verify that SSH works, like so: $ ssh git@hf.co PTY allocation request failed on channel 0 Hi anonymous, welcome to Hugging Face. Connection to hf.co closed. (It says “anonymous”, does that indicate an problem insid…
