Hi, @piombinilorenzo1987

Would you mind sharing the exact error message that you’re currently getting when you try to login? Also are you using a ssh client like PuTTy or you’re connecting via terminal?

You can follow our existing tutorial on how to connect to droplets with SSH:

Hope that this helps! Regards, Alex
