"Server refused our key"

Hi,

Have enabled key authentication. Getting, "Server refused our key" when trying to login. What is missing here?

Thanks...

Post your SSH config (assuming that's what you're talking about), details of what client you're using and how you're using it, how you generated your keys and where you put them.

If you put the effort in to describe your problem we will be more than happy to do likewise with trying to find a solution.
