      Do you get any errors while connecting? What's the output when you ssh with -vvv switch?

        -v Verbose mode. Causes ssh to print debugging messages about its
        progress. This is helpful in debugging connection, authentica-
        tion, and configuration problems. Multiple -v options increase
        the verbosity. The maximum is 3.

          It's rejecting the private key, which started after I tried to establish trust. I just don't know how to fix it when I can't get any console access to the machine.

            That's one of the reasons that I like CloudatCost vs. Amazon. Amazon is amazing, but the lack of console access and the necessity of keys is a big deal. Amazon expects you to treat everything as a true cloud and if you don't, well, there are risks. Things like this that until you deal with a pure cloud solution you don't realize how difficult and risky things can be.

                  Good find! I hadn't seen that! I'm already halfway through rebuilding the server anyways...

                    I would suggest you still check the guide and fix it anyways the instance is free, but the knowledge you might get with that could be useful for ages 🙂

                        Read it over. No useful info. It basically says to verify you're using the correct username, which I am. Nothing more I can do without console access.
