Access denied

[josepmariall]

Hello,

I am following instructions above to connect puTTy to Microsfot Azure (SSH), however I keep getting the same message:

• Server refuses our key

Then I type in my password and I get:

Access denied

I have already restarted the computer, deleted and re-installed puTTy....

I guess the only part on this explanation I did not do is "Provide SSH public key when deploying a VM", as I do not know where in Azure Portal I should enter the key.

Any help will be very much appreciated.

Thank you very much.

Josep Maria

Hi,

I have found the answer.

Instead of using port 22 I use port 23 and it works.

Thanks,

Josep Maria
