I have setup hudson to check out from my remote git repository but i get 

**Permission denied (publickey,gssapi-keyex,gssapi-with-mic,keyboard-interactive).**

my git repository uses gitosis and works when i clone via the command line. Hudson is running as the same user

here is a larger part of the log with hostnames and directories edited

Checkout:workspace / /Users/me/.hudson/jobs/HudsonJob/workspace - hudson.remoting.LocalChannel@363adfb4
Cloning the remote Git repository
Cloning repository origin
ERROR: Error cloning remote repo 'origin' : Could not clone gitosis@myserver:myproject
ERROR: Cause: Error performing command: /opt/local/bin/git clone -o origin gitosis@myserver:myproject /Users/me/.hudson/jobs/HudsonJob/workspace

Permission denied (publickey,gssapi-keyex,gssapi-with-mic,keyboard-interactive).
fatal: The remote end hung up unexpectedly

I also tried running the following from a command line

/opt/local/bin/git clone -o origin gitosis@myserver:myproject /Users/me/.hudson/jobs/HudsonJob/workspace

It works except but i have to specify a password for it to work.

my guess is that the hudson build fails since it has to prompt for a password. Usually i guess that adding my public key to .ssh/authorized keys would do the job but the authorized keys for gitosis has that public key autogenerated with some extra commands.

So i am wondering how i can allow hudson access without having to type a password?

First, I would suggest using gitolite as gitosis is no longer actively developed.

Use keys that don't require a password.
