SSH login, how to set keys to user accounts
.everyoneloves__top-leaderboard:empty,.everyoneloves__mid-leaderboard:empty,.everyoneloves__bot-mid-leaderboard:empty{ margin-bottom:0;
}
I have 3 people with 3 windows machine and 1 ubuntu 12.04 server. I have created each user account and added them to the sudo group. I have copied the public keys straight from puttygen straight into the authenticated_keys file.
I want to know how to tell each key to allow a specific user in. all the keys end in rsa-ssh "date". all the keys work for my account but not for any of the other accounts when I want one key to work for one account.
I have tried adding user@computername at the end of the key in the authenticated_keys files, but no luck. I just get No Supported Authentication methods available.
I have looked all over google but cant find a easy explanation.
Thank you for any help.

You have to copy the ssh public keys to each user account. Otherwise, the keys will only work for your account.
~/.ssh/authorized_keys
Lists the public keys (DSA/ECDSA/RSA) that can be used for logging in as this user.
So, every user that will use the keys to log in, needs their respective keys in each users ~/.ssh/authorized_keys.

@David those links are "related" but don't answer your question. I'm telling you that if you created 3 keys for each 3 accounts then the keys has to be in each users~/.ssh/authorized_keysor to put it bluntlyuser1key has to be in/home/user1/.ssh/authorized_keys,user2key has to be in/home/user2/.ssh/authorized_keys, etc.
