I have a .ppk private key downloaded from EC2.
I need to use it with SSH on Windows instead of PuTTY, so I loaded the file into PuTTYgen, then clicked “Conversions” and then selected “Export OpenSSH key”. I saved it as “key.pem”
Then I tried to SSH from the terminal to the EC2 using the public IP address, just as I do in PuTTY (just with the .ppk )
ssh -i "C:UsersMedownloadskey.pem" ubuntu@1.111.121.11
but I get the following in the logs:
OpenSSH_for_Windows_9.5p2, LibreSSL 3.8.2
