If for some reason you are not an administrator on a Mac device (such as a UW owned machine and not a personal device) you may not be able to change the permissions in your .ssh folder. In cases like these an alternative may be needed. If the recommended process hasn’t worked for you please try this:
On the MedicineBow Dashboard via the web browser go to the ssh key file manager:
Then revoke your old keys and generate a new one:
Then download these new keys
Now keep them in your ~/Downloads folder but please extract them
With them extracted in your Downloads folder go into the downloaded directory in your terminal:
cd ~/Downloads/<username>This is what is going to be different. Once you are in that directory, ssh with the following command:
ssh -i id_ecdsa username@medicinebow.arcc.uwyo.edu
