# Login with PUTTY instead of using the CMD
boot2docker generates and uses the public/private key pair in your %HOMEPATH%\.ssh directory so to login you need to use the private key from this same directory.
The private key needs to be converted into a format that putty can use so for this purpose you can use <a href="http://www.chiark.greenend.org.uk/~sgtatham/putty/download.html">puttygen</a>
Open puttygen.exe and load the private key from %HOMEPATH%\.ssh\id_boot2docker (File->Load) ,
then simply click : Save Private Key.
You can use the saved file to login with putty using docker@127.0.0.1:2022
