"Server Refused Our Key" error while connecting to Putty

Sarat Chandra CJan 22 2016 — edited Jun 14 2016

Dear Team,

While doing an integration on new Java Cloud Service instance, tried to connect putty session for installing the certificates using KeyTool.

The connectivity was successful and the certificates were installed.

But the second time, the Putty session is throwing an error: "Server Refused Our Key".

Putty configured with the following details:

IP to be connected

Username

RSA Private Key uploaded

Followed the blogs and verified that our key was stable and is not changed, does not have spaces, passing the correct credentials, but none worked.

Please help in resolving the issue.

Thanks.

Not sure if this is still an issue, just tried it on our instance and it seems to work fine. For reference the command I issued from command line:

putty.exe -ssh -i rsa_putty.ppk  opc@111.222.33.44

You may want to try generating ssh logs with for details. Also can you elaborate what the exact steps for "certificates were installed" were if that caused the connection not to work ..

You have to set the "auto-login user" in Putty to "opc", then it should work.
