Random Password Generated for Ubuntu Deployments with SSH Keys
Encountering an issue when deploying an Ubuntu image + providing valid SSH key IDs from digital ocean where Digital Ocean will set a random password for root, and cannot log into the server without entering the current password and changing it. Except Digital Ocean will not email a randomly generated password, leaving the droplet inaccessible.
Steps to replicate:
- Create a new droplet with an Ubuntu image and provide valid SSH key IDs from D.O.
- Try to root into the droplet, you will be prompted to enter the current password for root.
