I get that error, Ive tried both username and username@server for logins
tried generating a key pem file on the server, but still no luck, not sure what im doing wrong and cant find any documentation on ssh setup

turned out the first error was unrelated to SSH, but still getting login errors, here is the error log:

Hi James,

What is your SSH configuration, e.g what private key type, what server type/version etc.

Your server seems to be prompting for a password and we’re not providing it.

Its a standard User/password, tried both user, and user@servername as the username, no diferance (connecting to a FreeBSD machine, thou i doubt that matters), not using keys, thou im attempting to set that up (found a walkthrough), will return with results

5

ok set up keyset, used the default ssh setup that powershell uses with openssh, not sure what that is to be honest, connecting to a FreeBSP server, i can connect fine manually in PS in either SSH or SFTP

if it helps the keys are id_ed(number) think that indicated the key type
