Robert,

No.

I used `ssh-keygen -p -f ~/.ssh/id_ed.....` and assumed it generated the
pair of private and public keys.

I tried logging in my web host account using the new password and it was
rejected a member of the community suggested that I check the public key
fingerprint (which I actually don't know how to do), so I added the new
public key generated by ssh-keygen and then I was able to log in.

Thanks,

Rich
