I'm sstarting to feel stupid.

I'm getting to the monotone server via usher now.

Read 'mtn: beginning service on 127.0.0.1 : 15002
'

So that's good.
But now I'm having problems with permissions.

I get the message:
mtn: warning: protocol error while processing peer 4691://topoi.pooq.com/write: 
'received network error: denied 'ad968be7244234e8d653201ab1ddd33b53ffa04d' read 
permission for '*' excluding '' because of branch 
'com.pooq.hendrik.write.melinda''

Of course com.pooq.hendrik.write.melinda is the important branch I want to 
sync.

My .monotone/read-permissions file:

pattern "com.pooq.hendrik.write*"
allow "address@hidden"
allow "address@hidden"
allow "address@hidden

pattern "com.pooq.hendrik.mtxt*"
allow "address@hidden"
allow "address@hidden

pattern "com.pooq.hendrik.cash*"
allow "address@hidden"
allow "address@hidden

pattern "com.pooq.hendrik.edworld*"
allow "address@hidden"
allow "address@hidden


and my .monotone/write-permissions:

address@hidden
address@hidden
address@hidden


Now ls .monotone/keys give me

address@hidden:~$ ls .monotone/keys
address@hidden  address@hidden
address@hidden:~$ 

Theres no address@hidden

If I try to place a public key there I get server-side complaints that

Read 'mtn: error: Extraneous data in key store'

But when I, server side, say

mtn --db monotone/write.db read ~/pubkey

it tells me

mtn: read 1 packet

but otherwise still refuses to sync.
The pubkey, of course, is the file I generated on my other machine by running

mtn pubkey address@hidden >~/april/pubkey
