I was messing with Subversion and a new App called Cornerstone. This is how I found out that MT has an IP Address blocking feature… Nice, Sorta… But not when you’re scratching your head trying to figure out why something isn’t working…

Thanks for the tip. I’ll soon be migrating a site long overdue for a redesign into EE hosting on MT so that’s something I’ll keep in mind.
Also that Cornerstone app looks pretty neat. What’s your thoughts on it so far?

I’m not sure i am new to SVN and every time I try to learn i hit a huge road block. THIS time I have hit one on Cornerstone. My SVN is setup properly and i can view the contents… However, I cannot connect with Cornerstone. Even after following this tutorial: http://mitchellhashimoto.com/subversion-on-mediatemple/.
The App looks good but I can’t use it. I get this message and I’m not sure what it exactly means…
1) Ensure that the server’s RSA key footprint has already been accepted by this Mac, and 2) that the server is configured to use RSA public keys for authentication.
Not sure how to check MediaTemple for RSA Public Keys or how to even set that up.
Then I select ok and it says “connected successfully” and then immediately it says the server at “domain.com” disconnected unexpectedly.
Anybody have any ideas? Sorry this is probably a n00b question about setting up servers!

Sorry can’t help you with that one. I would have thought that selecting ok would be ok. Have you tried connecting to your server using SSH from the terminal? You should get a similar message in the terminal allowing you to accept the RSA key footprint.
My understanding accepting the RSA footprint is you just confirming that you are connecting to a secure server that you are confident is the correct server destination for your files. Once you accept it, it shouldn’t ask you again.
Maybe a developer with more experience in SSH could answer this better than me but that’s my understanding of it.
