gerrit did not get anthony... the ssh log you sent indicate that
nathony is used... because that is the user you are logged on
and you probably do not have a entry in .ssh/config to telll ssh to
use another username

either way you did not indicate a username at all to gerrt (last time I checked)

logon to gerrit's web. then 'setting'  and under 'profile you have a
field 'username' file here whatever you want.. but that has to match
with ssh

btw: no-one can see that normally. I_ can only because I'm gerrit
sysadm and I have access to the underlying postgress database...
