SSH failing on Windows

Thanks.  Yes, I did copy the ssh keys over.  As my email said, I think the underlying problem is that I should be using RSA keys not DSA keys.  So I have to 

- generate a RSA key; I can manage that but I'm anxious about overwriting 
  my existing DSA key

- push the new RSA key to git.haskell.org, or ghc.haskell.org, or something
  I'm very unsure how to do that, since I think those machines don’t accept
  ssh connections

Thanks

Simon

|  And then I read the error message. That message suggests that the SSH
|  key is not known by the remote repository. Did you copy your SSH keys
