Random Password Generated for Ubuntu Deployments with SSH Keys #40

Description

@cscottjackson

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.
