How to ssh into openshift app using the 'rhc' command on windows?

Question

I am trying to ssh (from windows) into my Openshift app using the 'rhc' command

rhc app-ssh <app name>

I have followed the Openshift instruction here:

https://www.openshift.com/forums/openshift/how-to-rhc-app-ssh-command

Putty is returning the error "Putty Command Line Error: unknown option "-V" and then fails. My google searches indicate putty has a "-v" (lowercase) option for turning on Verbose. I'm not sure if it's one in the same.

If I use the Putty GUI everything works fine. I would like to figure out how to ssh into my openshift app using the command line.

Answer 1

• First you need to generate private and public key. You can use puttygen to do that.
• Then you should import public key into your OpenShift account.
• And then use private key with putty.

It's a bug in RHC for windows. They fixed it in a forked version.
