SSH Key problem Ubuntu 14.04. Password is need although my home machine and droplet are paired!?

Posted on July 1, 2015

I’m new to digital ocean and I used the automagical add SSH Key form to share my public key, however when I ssh from my mac I am prompted for a password. I never used a passphrase when generating the keys so why am I prompted for a password when none was applied and how can I fix it?
