Hello there,
If you provided an SSH key when creating your DigitalOcean droplet, password authentication may have been automatically disabled.
On another note, if you have your ssh-key added to your droplet, the password authentication can be skipped due to the presence of the ssh-key pair.
If you’re using an ssh-client in your terminal you can add the
-vvv
to the ssh command, e.g -ssh -vvv user@DropletIp
to get a more verbose output of how the connection was established.Regards
