Hey crew,

I'm currently trying to figure this out on my end, but thought I'd share it
with the group to see if there is any insight. I'm trying to SSH into my
Debian server.

Here's the result copied from terminal:

Permission denied (publickey).

I'm confused as to how the key is found and the signature is verified as
correct, but then the connection is denied. Any insight into this would be
greatly appreciated.

Thanks,
Griffin
