+ </p>
+ <p>
+ <code> chmod 700 .ssh/ </code>
+ </p>
+ <code> chmod 644 .ssh/id_rsa.pub </code>
+ <p>
+ <code> chmod 600 .ssh/id_rsa </code>
+ </p>
+ <code> chmod 644 .ssh/authorized_keys </code>
+ <p>
+ For whatever reason these files due not have the correct permissions set, as ssh is very picky about correct file permissions this can cause errors. The above will fix these.
