I am using quite a few SSH keys but same problem

Asked By casey cock 30 points N/A Posted on - 08/14/2012

Hello

My username is happy_cat in here; I want to create a latest account with another username of happycat to make use of this feature

So I made a second account to utilize the feature.

But I can't make use of this account in my SSH key. The error message I found is:

Someone has already registered that SSH key.

Someone has already registered that SSH key.

I am using quite a few SSH keys but same problem.

Please help me to solve.

Hello Casey,

The names that you are choosing for the SSH have already been taken by others people and they are already in use. You will therefore need to make sure that you do the following:

• Ensure that you use a unique SSH key, which are sure that no one else could have.
• If you try various unique keys and be unsuccessful then the problem will most likely be with the application. You can try shutting it down completely and then restart it just in case it is in idle mode and therefore not working as it should.
• You can try mixing numbers, letters and character symbols to come up with a unique key that no one else has.

Regards,

Carl
