We have a CoreOS dropplet and have manually setup ssh keys for it via the ~/.ssh/authorized_keys file. Once in a while (it happens about 2 times per month), the keys in that file would revert to the globally set ones via the DigitalOcean website inside the security setting page. Does anyone have any idea why this keeps happening?

The only thing I can think of is cloud-init somehow being executed again and in some very non-correct way running the installation script again and replacing the keys with the one in the DigitalOcean control panel connected to that droplet.
But I’ve never used the CoreOS.
Let’s check if one of the DigitalOcean staff can help on this…
@jtittle is this something you know something about or would that be dwilkin or asb?
