Hi,
Just finished installing FreeBSD11.1 on a vps and for some reason, I cannot ssh to the box..
I created a new user and set 'use password based authentication' to no.
I then created a key pair
I set password to the key..
and copied the kryten_ed25519_2018_key to my desktop..Each time i tried to login it keep telling the password is wrong..
When I run
So the issue is not that I typed password wrong.
Could anyone please help?
