@lac_ekim Do you still have this issue?

[robertomachorro]

You mentioned that you have “the ssh key made”, I’m assuming that you copied your public key into the ~/.ssh/authorized_keys files at your remote?

What happens when you do a regular ssh? Do you still get prompted for a password or not?

The remote .ssh folder usually contains files similar to the ones below:

~/.ssh$ ls -a
. … authorized_keys id_rsa id_rsa.pub known_hosts
