            Bug ID: 3535
           Summary: Permission denied error message is unclear
           Product: Portable OpenSSH
           Version: 9.1p1
          Hardware: Other
                OS: Windows 10
            Status: NEW
          Severity: enhancement
          Priority: P5
         Component: ssh
          Assignee: unassigned-bugs at mindrot.org
          Reporter: edward.miller at mesirow.com

If I try to connect to a server without passing a valid passphrase for
my key, it says "Permission denied (publickey)"

This message is very vague and unhelpful. I suggest at least appending
a suggestion, like "Did you specify the correct passphrase, if needed?"
