Puttygen username

I’m hosting 5 of my sites on OpenShift. Sometimes I need to connect to my applications through ssh. On Windows, I’m using putty to do that.

Here is small “how-to” about connecting to the OpenShift application.

Open puttygen and press generate:

Move your mouse in “Key” area until progress bar is full.

Then type your passphrase and press save private key.

Also, copy all text from Public key section (starts from ssh-rsa)

Now go to OpenShift web interface. Select settings and press “Add a new key…” button.

Insert public key here

Press ‘Create’. Now you OpenShift account is ready to recieve connections subscribed with generated private key, but you need to know where to connect.
