Permissions for .ssh/authorized_keys

On some systems like Cpanel the ssh keys are not accepted until you set permission manually

On some servers you might be unable to connect with ssh keys, even if you setup the ssh config properly.

How to fix this?

Please try the following commands from the shell of the machine you want to connect into.

chmod 700 ~/.ssh/
chmod 600 ~/.ssh/authorized_keys
