Cannot to set a windows11 PC as remote server

Now I have a problem to setup my windows 11 as remote server. Could someone give me advise to solve the situation?

My system: Ubuntu 20.04 PC with WebMO enterprise (20.0.012e) as main machine + a couple of ubuntu 20.04 PCs as remote server to perform NWChem. (the remote servers work well by passwordless ssh)

Now I tried to add a windows 11PC as remote server to use windows version Gaussian (G16W). From the terminal of the main machine, passwordless access is successful through ssh. But, when I tried to setup the windows 11 PC as remote server, the error message of "Could not contact remote server: verify passwordless SSH/RSH" appeared.
I'd appreciate it if someone kindly give a comment for this problem.

Note that the remote servers themselves MUST be Linux/OS X machines. Windows machines are not supported directly as remote servers, because much of the infrastructure required for remote servers (e.g. SSH, most notably) is not as well supported on Windows.

Thank you for the answer.
I understand that the remote server must be linux or osx.
I give up to access to windows 11.
