can't ssh in
I've got my new linode setup - but I cannot ssh in from my home workstation.
I can ping the IP.
IPTables isn't running (yet)
sshd is up and running.
I can use the ajax ssh web client just fine.
Anytime I try ssh'ing in though, I get this error message:
debug1: No more authentication methods to try.
Permission denied (publickey).
why isn't it letting me use password auth?
I have PasswordAuthentication = yes in my sshd_config
in fact, I can ssh -vv root@localhost just fine using the ajax console - and it say's "
debug1: Authentications that can continue: publickey,password "
So why localhost let's me do password, remote doesn't?
Thanks.

Usually check ~/.ssh/config or /etc/ssh_config
@obs:
Do you have password authentication disabled on your workstation?
Usually check ~/.ssh/config or /etc/ssh_config
Doesn't look like it.
what's really weird - is I couldn't log in with iTerm2.
So I tried the default mac shell program "terminal"
and it worked - I could ssh in.
Closed out - and tried logging in again, and now I am not able to?
