Git clone with password prompt (multiple users)

I have a virtual machine set up with multiple users. My main users are VM-User and with this account I created another user called "Joe". I cloned the git repository by running loggin in VM-User and everything works fine.

The problem I am facing is that when I try to clone the same repo using loggin on user "Joe" it prompts me for the password for the git server.

git clone git@0.0.0.0:repo.git some_folder

shows it:

git@0.0.0.0 password: (asks me to type in a password)

I created an ssh key for "Joe" and added it to gitosis.

Does anyone know what I am doing wrong?

Thank you in advance:)

You do not have an authorized key installed on the cloning machine, otherwise SSH will never reach this step:

 debug1: Next authentication method: password


I would check that I have the correct key on the virtual machine and the clone machine.

I had the same problem. I just hit Enter in response to Enter file in which to save the key (/c/Users/sposada/.ssh/id_rsa):

and I copied id_rsa.pub

and changed the name on the server.



git is trying to get the ssh public key from /home/joe/.ssh/id_rsa

, but you have/home/joe/.ssh/joe
