I have followed Amazon instructions to the letter and it does not work.
ec2-api-tools-1.3-34128 - this is the api tools that I got from Amazon
Set it up following instructions. Checked everything to make sure I follow instructions. When I try to use it, I only get: "invalid.blabla" depending on what command do I try to use.
Anybody with this problem?
I deleted all my instances and all key pairs.
Created new ones (instance and key pair).
Setup putty all over again like instructions say I should do
(creating .ppk file and everything).
Still the problem remains.
When I try to connect to my ec2 instance using putty
I get "login as : " ????????
Also, I am using windows vista.
Is this a problem.
Thanks
Had this same problem. I found that in putty I had to do three things (only 2 of which are mentioned in the amazon guide at http://docs.amazonwebservices.com/AmazonEC2/gsg/2007-01-19/putty.html)
provide the converted private key in the ssh -> Auth section
provide the dns name or IP
go to Connection -> Data and enter "ec2-user" as the Auto-login username
Hope this saves someone else 20 mins!
Did you make sure that you put "root" as the auto-login account in the "Data" section?
A mistake I made than gave me the same error message was setting
"root#ec2-.eu-west-1.compute.amazonaws.com" as the value in the "Host Name (or IP Address)" field in putty.
You need to specify "ubuntu#ec2-.eu-west-1.compute.amazonaws.com".

I am trying to configure Host Based Authentication for SSH from Windows to Windows using OpenSSH. I have found the following articles but they are Linux based.
https://www.golinuxcloud.com/configure-ssh-host-based-authentication-linux/
https://www.lehigh.edu/~insna/OpenSSH-HOWTO-hostbased-auth.htm
https://docs.oracle.com/cd/E36784_01/html/E37125/sshuser-12.html
I have followed the same steps as mentioned in these articles. Although I know that the configurations should be same, but somehow I am not able to connect to remote machine. Here is the error I am getting
Permission denied (publickey,keyboard-interactive,hostbased)
I am not able to understand what I am missing. I was looking for articles which describe the steps for Windows, as it will be easy for me to understand if I am missing something.
Got the solution. The following configuration must be set.
StrictModes no
It is by default set to yes, and is commented out in the sshd_config file. StrictModes is set to no for Public Key Authentication and Host Based Authentication.
None of the above articles (plus others too) have mentioned it, unfortunately.
I have Oracle Linux 8.5 in Oracle Cloud, and have been using the host for several months.
But today I was trying to setup vscode remote ssh and looks like I messed up the ssh key that I use to login to the host. Now I cannot!
I tried to follow this documentation and this thread to fix some commands.
However, that did not help! And in fact now the host having difficulty stopping quickly; rebooting looks fine.
Any ideas on how to correct this issue?! (Was having a lot of fun until this struck :) )
In the OCI console, go to the instance, and click on the "console connection", this will show you 2 options, one is create local connection, which will allow you to upload a new ssh key file. Or you can create a console connection and then update the authorized_keys file with your new id_rsa.pub contents
Console connection did NOT work for me. That's why I went by attaching the volume to another instance. The documentation I followed suggests to mount /dev/sdb3. However that did not work for me. Instead, I mounted /dev/ocivolume/root, and modified the ssh key there, and now works!
I am trying to use MySQL Cluster 7.5 version , after opening the web browser and clicking on :create new MySQL cluster", and getting in the "define cluster" page , I write the IP of the remote data node in to the host list field ,but I get error which say "there were errors when connecting to the remote hosts, host 172.16.1.129: couldn't open socket to 172.16.1.129 ,press'ok to continue to the next page anyway, or cancel to stay in the previous page"
I turned off windows firewall options too, but no luck,
what is the cause of this error and how to solve it?
What are the essential steps to install/configure in remote pc (data node).?
Thanks a lot
https://www.mysql.com/support/supportedplatforms/cluster.html
Did you check this? if you OS supports?
This has nothing to do with supported platforms. My guess is the credentials you used to connect to nodes are bad. In that version of MySQL NDB Cluster autoinstaller you can provide only Cluster-wide credentials, i.e. one credentials for all the hosts. Those credentials could be a) private key without passphrase (idrsa in ~/.ssh) or b) ordinary username/password. Please see html help file that comes with Autoinstaller for details.
I have AWS EC2 instance. I am using filezilla 3.8.0 but I cannot connect instance, filezilla doesnt accept account type normal and asking password. When I type user name ubunbu and password blank I received following message:
Disconnected: No supported authentication methods available (server sent: publickey)
I inserted pem key and converted ppk key also. My staff can connect but I cant. What is wrong?
Thanks
It happens in AWS EC2. As EC2 provide Connection through an SFTP need some other methods.
Firstly the CONNECTION will be in FTP as default. Need to change to SFTP.
Then instead of directly giving host name and password, it must be done in Site manager. Step by step procedure given below:
So the steps for troubleshooting:
Go to Filezilla's Settings
SFTP
Add Key File (Give the ppk converted key file or FZ will convert the pem ket)
Then take File in Filezilla
Go to
File
Site Manager
New Site
Give any name (ec2-amazon)
In General, give host name 'Public DNS' (eg: ec2-34-423.ap-southeast...)
Change the Protocol to SFTP
Logon Type: Normal
User : ec2-user or ubuntu - depends
Clear Password
Connect!
Hope you will be connected. Happy Hosting...:)
More specifically here's a screenshot of the dialog where you are supposed to add your ssh private key.
Try the following configuration in filezilla,
set Logon type = Interactive,Protocal = SFTP, and attach keyfile to filezilla SFTP setting from MenuBar -> Edit -> Settings ->SFTP -> Add Key File.
Hope this helps.
I was facing the same problem-
I follow up #Amith Ajith answer but found my setting was as it, is.
I choose a file as privatekey.pem which i generated.
Change "Transfer setting" as active
it worked for me.
I´m following the steps outlined in Tim Davis´ blog for setting up GIT with copSSH on Windows (http://www.timdavis.com.au/git/setting-up-a-msysgit-server-with-copssh-on-windows/) but I´m having problems. I´ve gotten up to step 15 under the Installing Putty instructions but rather than getting a "Enter Login" message, I´m getting a "Network Error: Unable to connect to server" error.
I know that it could potentially be a myriad of things but I was wondering if by some miracle, someone could give me some ideas of what else I should check?
I´ve doublechecked the following:
IP address is correct
User has been added to copSSH
Key is stored in the specified user folder
Rule has been added to Firewall
(NOTE: We´re using a server on 1and1.com and the firewall rules allow us to specify a local port and a remote port. Have configured to local port 4837 and remote port to Any).
I tried to doublecheck if the SSH service is running but I don´t know what it´s called. I noted down the username and password from the copSSH setup but I haven´t seen anything remotely similar to SSH in the list of services.
Any help would be greatly appreciated!! I´ve never had to do something like this before so I´m a little lost.
Regards,
Kat
Troubleshooting
Are you specifying port 4837 in the Putty window?
I personally suggest using OpenSSH or SmartGit, not Putty... I've seen too many issues with it.
Also, I suspect your firewall configuration needs to be local port=Any and remote port=4837.
The 5 minute shortcut
This installer sets up a windows git server using CopSSH. It configures the firewall, the user accounts, and gives you a GUI for all the SSH and keys stuff. It costs $9, but it saves hours of configuration (it's a 5 minute, 3-step install). It has a self-contained Git install, so no conflicts should happen.
NOTE: I'm the webmaster of windowsgit.com. I got the project started after taking a good look at Davis' tutorial and thinking.... oh, ----! The CopSSH author and I collaborated to make the automate the process and reduce the number of frustration-related keyboard deaths :)
