You did export it as openssh-key right?

I guess, becaus you didn`t ;-) .

Give it a try the other way:

use ssh-keygen on the linux box.

ssh-keygen -b 4096 -t rsa -C my_linux_box_key -f my_linux_box_key

Give a propper passphrase.

cat my_linux_box_key.pub >> authorized_keys

Copy the my_linux_box_key to youre win Box, and open
the key with puttygen.
Save it afterwards in ppk format and use this key to
connect to the linux box.

Test the connection.

Delete the private key on the Linux Box.

Have fun.

      Dirk
