权限被拒绝（公钥）-aws接口

Question

I'm kind of new to bash programming, but I decided to take an online class in which we create a t1 micro instance through AWS and ssh in and do all of our work there. I had been sshing through an alias I had made just fine for about a month, then I took a short hiatus for about two weeks. When I came back I got the permission denied(public access) message. I have looked at other threads and gone into my .ssh files and compared files and the like. It might have something to do with the fact that I generated new key pairs on the t1 micro instance, but I don't know how to fix it. When I debug with ssh -v key.pem I get:

OpenSSH_5.2p1, OpenSSL 0.9.8x 10 May 2012
debug1: Reading configuration data /Users/myName/.ssh/config
debug1: Reading configuration data /etc/ssh_config
ssh: Could not resolve hostname key.pem: nodename nor servname provided,      
or not known

It's clearly an issue with one of the systems not recognizing the key pair, but I can't resolve it. Thanks everyone, all comments welcome.

Answer 1

the problem is your ssh command

what you want to run is

ssh -i key.pem [user]@[servername]
