I realised I've made this a little ambiguous in a couple of places, so I thought I'd clarify.

 

If using RSA-SHA1 as your authentication method, you require an openssl keypair. SSH keys generated using RSA won't work.

 

For quick reference:

 

Generate a 2048 bit RSA key and save in current location as keyname.pem

openssl genrsa -out keyname.pem 2048

 

Extract the public key from the private key and save as keyname.pub

openssl rsa -in keyname.pem -pubout > keyname.pub
