I am new to linux, but I was trying to access my server using the command line tool/terminal on Ubuntu 17, but apperently you need Open SSH to use SSH that requires a keygen. I have already created a public and private key for my server, I just need to connect. Whenever I try this it doesnt work :(
ssh user@example.com
ssh apache-httpd webserver openssh

Provide more information. your problem appears to be with your client yet we have no idea what your client is.

I assume when you say keygen you mean you need to generate authentication keys on your client and you don't know how?

@jdwolf I guess, why would you need to generate a key on the client end? Sorry, I have almost no idea what any of this means. The article for my hosting company says to use Putty on windows, but I want to use Linux.
