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 ?

Did ssh -vv root@hostip, got this debug code

Anyone know a fix to this?
