We recently had an issues where I had rebooted our EC2 instance (Ubuntu x86_64, version 9.10 server) and due to an EC2 issue the instance needed to be stopped and was down for a few days.
Now I have been able to bring the instance back online I cannot connect to SSH using the keypair which previously worked. Unfortunately SSH is the only way to get into this server, and while I have another system running in its place there are a number of things I would like to try and retrieve from the machine.
Running SSH in verbose mode yields the following:

So, right now I'
m really at a loss and not sure what to do. While I've already got another system taking the place of this one I'd really like to have access back :|
