I do not think that this will work because the '-guest' string is just
part of your user name on Alioth.
Did you read the SSH-tips at
http://debian-med.alioth.debian.org/docs/policy.html#ssh-tips
? It links to a Wiki article in the Debian Wiki which you should read
as well. The first test is to make sure that you can do
ssh alioth
plainly. If this works checking out and commiting via SVN usually works
nicely.

If you have continuous trouble you might like to post the output of
ssh -v alioth
here.

Usually it makes sense to subscribe this mailing list because you will
get some interesting information for your work and the list his not that
crowded by postings that you can not bear the amount. So the list
policy is not to CC the poster but I interpret your sentense above as a
"Please CC me" - however, I can not surely parse your description of
your e-mail address and thus I'm CCing your Sender address. If you
prefer the mail to some other address simply spell it completely for
cut-n-pasting.
Hope this helps and thanks for your interest in Debian Med
Andreas.
