I wish to establish a new droplet with Centos8 operating system which will permit access via sudo to two developers and access to only billing information to a third individual. Third individual to pay by credit card. How do I implement this via team system, or otherwise? RALPER3

Hi @ralper3,
Maybe you want to use centos with two sudo permissions,and let another one to pay for your Droplets.You can generate new users with sudo permission like this:
sudo usermod -aG sudo USER NAME
Remember to use this command under root user.
As for access to only billing information to a third individual,you can create a team account on DigitalOcean,not CentOS.Then distribute one with BILLING role,which means he just have the access to pay and look billing Information.You can find more at here: Teams Roles . How to create teams.
Hope help you!

Hello there,
In addition to what has already been mentioned, I wanted to point out that CentOS Linux 8 has reached End Of Life (EOL) on December 31st, 2021.
I would strongly recommend planning either migration to another OS like Debian or Ubuntu, or upgrading to CentOS Stream.
I personally believe that the safest way to do this is to follow these steps here:
- Spin up a new Droplet with the desired OS
- Install the necessary services (webserver, sql server, etc.)
- After that using
rsyncfor example copy over your files and migrate your databases - Then test your website and server fully to make sure that everything is working as expected
- Finally, change your DNS to point to the new Droplet
