Have you set the configuration option that is used by mercurial to find the ssh program to use for ssh operations?

also,

HG requires the path to the repo as one relative to the home folder of the user. ie, if you are logging in as silhouette and your repo is located in /home/silhouette/projects/myproject then the command to push to this repo would be

hg push ssh://[email protected]/projects/myproject

and if you project was in /var/www/projects/myproject then it would be

hg push ssh://[email protected]/../../var/www/projects/myproject

As far as we can see, those things are all set up properly, but we aren't getting that far anyway. Something is failing at the authentication/authorisation stage when setting up the SSH connection, hence our current preference for the web-based alternatives.

Have you tried doing push/pull with --debug flag?
