Hello, I have a droplet with SSH key.
My SSH and SFTP access work perfectly with Mac OSX Terminal and Transmit.
But for some reason SFTP does not work with PHPSTORM :
Error
Connection to 'ip_address' failed
SSH_MSG_DISCONNECT: 2 Too many authentication failures for root

Thanks @cosminflo. Had the same issue issue using Laravel Homestead. Simply retyped my SSH password and hit Apply and BOOM!!! Fixed :-)
Just regenerate with correct format:
-Open your private key in PuTTYGen -Top menu “Conversions”->”Export OpenSSH key”. -Save the new OpenSSH key when prompted. -Restart machine maybe needed (in my case).

I had this problem when I upgraded PHPStorm to 2016.1. It looks like the passphrase (encryption algorithm ?) is stored differently so it doesn’t match.
I couldn’t remember what passphrase I used at key creation, so I had to regenerate.
Hope this helps someone.
