ssh root@server Permission denied (publickey).

Why find .ssh/id_dsa file. there is no such a file. just id_rsa.

So the issue is that I can login to my server just fine using:

ssh root@SERVER_IP_ADRESS

But when I try to login with a user I created from root:

ssh USERNAME@SERVER_IP_ADRESS5 I get:

Permission denied (publickey).

The steps I went through before this.

SSH generated a key Created an Ubuntu 16.04 droplet with given SSH key. SSH into server with root

$ adduser user_name usermod -aG sudo user_name
