AWS ssh访问“权限被拒绝（公钥）”问题

如何通过SSH连接到AWS实例？

我有：

1. 在AWS上注册；
2. 在AWS网站上创建了公钥和证书，并将它们保存到磁盘；

3. 进入我的控制台并创建环境变量：

   $ export JAVA_HOME=/usr/lib/jvm/java-6-openjdk/
   $ export EC2_CERT=/home/default/aws/cert-EBAINCRNWHDSCWWIHSOKON2YWGJZ5LSQ.pem
   $ export EC2_PRIVATE_KEY=/home/default/aws/pk-EBAINCRNWHDSCWWIHSOKON2YWGJZ5LSQ.pem
   

4. 告知AWS API使用此密钥对并将密钥对保存到文件中：

   $ ec2-add-keypair ec2-keypair > ec2-keypair.pem
   

5. 使用以下密钥对启动了一个AWS Ubuntu 9实例：

   $ ec2-run-instances ami-ed46a784 -k ec2-keypair
   

6. 尝试建立与实例的ssh连接：

   $ ssh -v -i ec2-keypair.pem [email protected]
