The problem was that ec2 requires dsa keys and we were using rsa keys. Also, I needed to put your keys in the authorized_keys
file.
###Steps:
Create your DSA keys:
ssh-keygen -b 1024 -t dsa
Copy your dsa pub key
cat ~/.ssh/id_dsa.pub | pbcopy
Send that to me and I'll add it to the authorized_keys
file on the box.
Finally, add the following to your ~/.ssh/config file
Host cp
HostName ec2-204-236-164-202.us-west-1.compute.amazonaws.com
user deploy
Then log in like this:
ssh cp
