I changed the ssh_host_ecdsa_key permissions to read-only in "others" ran the restart script and I can now connect. Zimmaro, I'm not a command line pro so I just right-clicked the file ,clicked properties and went to the permissions tab. All I know is that 0=root in the computer world.Just monkey around with the permissions, but just remember what you mess around with, because like I stated. SSH will not allow you to run with permissions because it deems it too unsafe to run. Good luck
