I have an Ubuntu VM running on azure. I need to ssh connect to it but I have lost my private key since my home partition has gone. So, I reinstalled the OS on my local machine and regenerated a new pair pf private/public keys -- which I am already using for github, bitbucket, ecc. Is there any way to set my new public key on the Ubuntu VM from the Azure Portal?

SSH keys are by default kept in the ~/. ssh directory. If you do not have a ~/. ssh directory, the ssh-keygen command creates it for you with the correct permissions.
To update your SSH key you first need to generate a new key as described here: Generate an SSH key pair. This should be done on your local machine (e.g. Windows / Linux / Mac). You MUST protect your key with a strong passphrase. Use a new, different passphrase whenever you generate a new key.
Actually, there is.

Just tested and worked fine for me.
