It looks like on your server you only can login with a key, not with password.

If your public key on the server site is added to /root/.ssh/authorized_keys then you should be able to login with ssh [email protected] -i /path/to/key

If you don't have a key, you could follow this steps:

  1. on your client run ssh-keygen, by default the key is created ath ~/.ssh/id_rsa
  2. There also is a id_rsa.pub created. Copy that line in id_rsa.pub and add it on the server to /root/.ssh/authorized_keys
  3. Login to your server with ssh [email protected] -i ~/.ssh/id_rsa

  • I changed my answer at number 2, I had a typo. You have to copy the line from id_rsa.pub to the /root/.ssh/authorized_keys of your server.

  • how do you connect to your server? Actually you could copy the file with scp (but since you can't login with ssh, this would not work). You could copy your public key on an ftp-server and download it from the server.
