I set up an account for a friend, with his email. I added myself as a team member. I set up LAMP and a site for him, then could not get the device keys to work, so I reset them - big mistake.
So I reset root password but he gets the email with reset instructions. He does not have 2 factor and cannot even get in to see new password.
I can open the terminal from the digital ocean page, but every time I try to log in I get: Permission denied (publickey). I had tried the tutorial on how to copy keys to my server but I could not get them to work, kept getting permission denied.
So any ideas how to fix this?? Thanks so much! -lino
