    I am have been working on this all day. Let me give you the scenario at hand. I have putty (latest version) installed on Windows 8.1.

    I have dedicated server cPanel/WHM installed 11.44.
    I have installed CSF through WHM and configured it.
    I have disabled password authentication.
    I have created key pairs in whm.
    I have changed PermitRootLogin to no.
    I added new user in terminal.
    I changed port to other than Port 22.
    I also added new user to Wheel Group in WHM.

    Thats about it and I have included some images and text files of logs and error messages.

    Please Help; I'm DYING HERE!!:confused:

    Hello,

    You seem not to have any active methods to ssh that's what the message says, you changed Permitrootlogin to no, maybe change it back to yes or ask your DC to help since you can't access those settings.

    Hello :)

    If you are logging in as a user, make sure the public key is manually added in the "/home/$username/.ssh/authorized_keys" file.

    Thank you.
