@johnnyorange Glad I could help! Took me weeks to figure that out lol....I would caution using that in production though, not sure the security implications for accepting the older key type.

I found another workaround (one-step solution) for the "Unable to verify key-based authentication error" without having to mess with any of the python packaging.

Adding

PubkeyAcceptedKeyTypes +ssh-rsa

To your /etc/ssh/sshd_config file will make the VM accept the older authentication
