I followed these instruction and could not connect to github for the life of me. 

>plink -ssh github.com
FATAL ERROR: Disconnected: No supported authentication methods available

plink -ssh git@github.com
You've successfully authenticated, but GitHub does not

with tortoisegit

git.exe push    "origin" master

ERROR: Permission to name/MyEmptyRepoOnGitHubHere denied to name.
fatal: The remote end hung up unexpectedly

Whats going on?

NOTE: I followed the instructions carefully. It was a lot worse before i followed them.
