Not able to create ssh container on AWS

Issue

I am running the following command and unable to create ssh container

JBossFuse:admin@uat-001> fabric:container-create-ssh --resolver localip --jvm-opts "-Xms1024m -Xmx1024m -Djava.rmi.server.hostname=10.20.30.5" --host 10.20.30.5 --path /opt/fuse/fuse_containers --user admin --password admin --private-key /opt/fuse/uat.pem --proxy-uri http://10.20.30.32:8181/maven/download --profile default fabric-003
.. ..
The following containers have failed:
        fabric-003: Auth fail

I have verified the key, user and password are correct, and we do have ssh access to the container.

[fuse@uat-001]$ ssh -i /opt/fuse/uat.pem admin@10.20.30.5
Enter passphrase for key '/opt/fuse/uat.pem':
