I followed the instructions (1st using SSH to create the key remotely, and then with PuTTY) and get the following error when probing the remote host:

I used pageant to add the keys and Windows cmd connection to the host using plink works fine. I also tried naming them the same as in the tutorial (id_rsa.ppk) and tried root as the login (root@192.168.0.126).

Please help.
