It looks like you're trying to ssh in from svn or whatever using your
local account name, peteriannucci, instead of iannucci.
You can fix this by adding to ~/.ssh/config
Host vinegar-pot.mit.edu vinegar-pot linerva.mit.edu linerva (add on any
other aliases you use)
User iannucci
That'll cause ssh to default to iannucci if you don't specify a username.
