Putty fatal error

Putty fatal error

I'm getting this when I try to Connect to Putty:

" Disconnected:no supported authentication methods available (server sent publickey gssapi-keyex, gssapi-mic) "


I remember, that I got a message in Filezilla, where it asked me, if I would allow it to get access. I was not sure, so I did't allow it do to it.

Could this be the reason why I'm getting this message?
And how to fix it?

Please help me out

I'm on a shared host.

Re: Putty fatal error

Looks like there was a problem with your public key file. PuttyGen will create a public key file that looks like:

 

Below is the example code of file : 

 

---- BEGIN SSH2 PUBLIC KEY ----
Comment: "rsa-key-20121022"
AAAAB3NzaC1yc2EAAAABJQAAAIEAhGF6GIuMY8FJ1+CNApnSY1N2YSlkYz72Yvwu
a6N1nFpBklz1+dsIMg4rcTLcF34M/tW5Yz+NUDAw2AEbxQ32FPgw7sAOIXktkYOH
tr7mmimiTjkoSCrJh1kqalPSpi8rglT/Bp67Ql2SZwvUFfMzHISryR0EZC4rXP/u
vObrJe8=
---- END SSH2 PUBLIC KEY ----

However, this will not work, so what you need to do is to open the key in PuttyGen, and then copy it from there (this results in the key being in the right format and in 1 line):

 

ssh-rsa AAAAB3NzaC1yc2EAAAABJQAAAIEAhGF6GIuMY8FJ1+CNApnSY1N2YSlkYz72Yvwua6N1nFpBklz1+dsIMg4rcTLcF34M/tW5Yz+NUDAw2AEbxQ32FPgw7sAOIXktkYOHtr7mmimiTjkoSCrJh1kqalPSpi8rglT/Bp67Ql2SZwvUFfMzHISryR0EZC4rXP/uvObrJe8= rsa-key-20121022

 

Paste this into authorized_keys then it should work.
