SSH keypair not able to login with passpharase #108

Hello, I am using Ubuntu to create a SSH key pair. It appears that I have my private and public keys correctly but it continues to not prompt me with a passphrase when I login. It allows me to login with my name and password not the passphrase. The public and the private keys match on my client machine as well. Any idea why this is not working.? Please help me

when you generated ssh keys, have you add passphrase?
