ssh giving me a permission denied!

I'm not exactly an expert at this, but I'm pretty sure I have covered everything here.

I wrote this :

$ ssh-keygen -t rsa -C "tekkub@gmail.com"
Generating public/private rsa key pair.
Enter file in which to save the key (/Users/tekkub/.ssh/id_rsa):
Enter passphrase (empty for no passphrase):
Enter same passphrase again:
Your identification has been saved in /Users/tekkub/.ssh/id_rsa.
Your public key has been saved in /Users/tekkub/.ssh/id_rsa.pub.
The key fingerprint is:
01:0f:f4:3b:ca:85:d6:17:a1:7d:f0:68:9d:f0:a2:db tekkub@gmail.com
The key's randomart image is:
+--[ RSA 2048]----+
|     .+   +      |
|       = o O .   |
|        = * *    |
|       o = +     |
|      o S .      |
|     o o =       |
|      o . E      |

Then I pbcopy'd the info to my github account. Saved it. Performed ssh git@github.com and it worked as expected.

Then I set up my config file..

Host hq Hostname 75.101.0.93 User alorus IdentityFile ~/.ssh/id_rsa StrictHostKeyChecking no

Then I tried ssh hq :

Permission Denied

I did this:

chmod 700 ~/.ssh
chmod 600 ~/.ssh/*

Tried again.. nothing.

Tried this :

ssh-keygen -t dsa -C "tekkub@gmail.com"

created a new pub, new key, and it failed.

I ran this:

Permission denied (publickey).

Anyone know what's up?

You need to cat ~/.ssh/id_rsa.pub >> ~/.ssh/authorized_keys. I don't know how specifically to perform this on github, but the key must be on the authorized_keys list.

Oops, now I see you're trying to get back to a box you control. Not a problem :)

Do you have any access to the server at this point? Check the sshd logs to see why it's rejecting your key.

try ssh-copy-id -i $HOME/.ssh/{yourpublickey} username@ipmachine

change username and ipmachine with your credential account
