I'm trying to connct to github via shh with using following command:

ssh -v github.com

But i have error Permission denied (publickey). I generated rsa keys with ssh-keygen command keys are located by the following pathes:

c:\Users\username\.ssh\id_rsa
c:\Users\username\.ssh\id_rsa.pub

I checked public keys (local and on github), i'm sure thay are the same. Here is debug info:

OpenSSH_4.6p1, OpenSSL 0.9.8e 23 Feb 2007

Can someone give me ad advice how to fix this problem?

Thanks in advance.

    Check that the public key is **exactly** the same (no spaces or newlines) on github as the public key you have locally. Are you able to log in with ssh directly (using putty for example)? – raphink Sep 15 '10 at 08:03

SSH will refuse to use any key file that is not readable only by the owner. Make sure that the private and public keys are readable only by you (chmod 600 ~/.ssh/id_rsa.*)

It's my mistake. I had to run following command:

ssh -v git@github.com
