Question
Connecting to server via SSH
Hi -
I’ve created a new Droplet, using an SSH key that I generated via PuTTyGen, and I created my server using the public key. When I try to connect using PuTTy, and including my private key (on usernames root, and forge) I get the error:
Server refused our key
I’m assuming I’m missing the private keys on my server but, how am I supposed to connect to put them there if I can’t connect in the first place? Very confused!
