Invalid SSH key file! (cannot Add SSH Key)
Posted: Tue Aug 28, 2012 6:29 pm
I am on the linux version 4.0.9.
In Administration, when I go to Server -> Settings -> SSH Key Manager, I push the "Add SSH Key" button. A dialog box comes up with the following entries:
Key Name:
SSH Key Path: (with a 'Browse' button next to it)
Password:
'Create Key File' (button)
For the life of me I cannot add a key, no matter what format I try public or private, (Putty/.ppk, OpenSSH, SSH2, etcetera). All I get is the message "Invalid SSH key file!".
When I click "Create Key File" it creates a PUBLIC .key file.
What gives? I presume this is where my private key should be stored, not my public key?
What is the trick to get this to work??
