So I have been attempting to set up a PEM file for ssh access. Both the local server I used for testing and the cloud vm are centos 6. I created a user on the cloud box, ran "ssh-keygen -t rsa" and took the defaults. I then copied the id_rsa.pub file to the local centos box, renamed it then made my test user the owner of the file. I then attempted to connect to the user I created on the google cloud box with the PEM file as shown below, but got the following error. [test1@pgpool1 ~]$ ssh -i /home/test1/my-key.txt upload@815.677.151.45 Permission denied (publickey,gssapi-keyex,gssapi-with-mic). Have any of you done this successfully before? Or know what the issue may be?Try adding -v to the ssh command, to get more information. But also, on the server you are trying to log in to, the public key needs to be copied into ~/.ssh/authorized_keys - not left in its own file. Also make sure that the ~/.ssh/directory is owned by the user and has permissions of 700. Cheers Tony
Thank you! I added the authorized keys on the server I am trying to connect to and now when I run the same command on the test server it is asking me for the passphrase, as I did not set one I just hit enter and then get the same permission denied error as before. Is there something I missed? permissions are correct for sure on the google cloud server that im trying to connect to. The key file on the test server is set to 0600
