Hi @jain.reechika,

Use Password instead of ssh key to create your digital ocean account and while log in into server using putty, use the same password.

Do let me know in case you need further assistance.

sir i am using linux os please tell for that

Hi @jain.reechika,

In Linux, you don’t need to install putty. Linux has an inbuild terminal for doing ssh into the server. Click on the terminal icon from the left side bar.

then type

ssh root@your_digital_ocean_ip_address

Then enter and type the password.

Do let me know in case you need further assistance.
