title: Google SDK/gcloud, cannot upload files because of SSH
body: <p>Google Compute Engine, installed Google SDK on Windows 8.1</p>
  
  <p>I get the following message when trying to upload a text file from my Windwos laptop to my VM instance.</p>
  
  <pre><code>c:\Users\user\Desktop&gt;gcloud compute copy-files test.txt root@&lt;my instance&gt;:&lt;my folder&gt; --zone &lt;zone&gt;
  Server refused public-key signature despite accepting key!
  Fatal: Disconnected: No supported authentication methods available (server sent: publickey,gssapi-keyex,gssapi-with-mic)
  ERROR: (gcloud.compute.copy-files) [C:\Program Files\Google\Cloud SDK\google-cloud-sdk\bin\..\bin\sdk\scp.EXE] exited with return code [1].
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>I've googled (yeah ...) the mesage and got an explanation saying: "This means that the public key generated by your SSH client was successfully transferred to the server but did not match the one stored on the server."</p>
  
  <p>I'm not very skilled on SSH-related stuff and knowing that the SSH terminal launched via the web Google Developers Console works fine, I didn't want to mess up with the SSH config files on the VM side.</p>
  
  <p>Thank you in advance for your support</p>
  
  <p>BR</p>
