Question
How to setup Ghost installation (Permission Denied Public Key)

Hey, I am on this step (https://marketplace.digitalocean.com/apps/ghost) but after I type in the ssh root command, I get the following response back.
root@161.35.116.33: Permission denied (publickey).
Not sure why it does this because I setup the ssh key properly with a passphrase exactly how the tutorial said. What should I do to circumvent this and continue setting up ?
