SSH Key Install Fails - GL-AR150

I have been trying to enable SSH access on my AR150 based node without success. I followed the key creation document on the ARDEN site using Putty. When I upload the file I get the following message:

Key Installed.
Failed to restart all services, please reboot this node.
Info: key file sanitized.

I did a restart but there is not a key file listed in the Remove Key drop down as expected for a good install.

Any suggestions on what I may be doing wrong?

Greg,   if you can send me
Greg,   if you can send me your public key at callsign @ arrl.net , I can load on one of my nodes and try to reproduce.

Greg, the code is checking
Greg, the code is checking that there is a valid email address within the public key.  Your public key only shows "ki0kk-ar150-07262020" was entered into the key comment field when generating.    The code checks for an email address format to add the key on the node.  Easy to miss in the aredn readthedocs on PuTTYGen:

'Whatever you enter in the “Key Comment” field must look like an email address with no spaces and the “@” present as in callsign@example.com'

Joe:

Thanks for your help. I must have missed the format notes for Key Comment field.
