When you first log onto the server via SSH, you should see something like:

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Thank you for using DigitalOcean's LAMP Application.
Your web root is located at /var/www/html and can be seen from http://108.131.197.65/
The details of your PHP installation can be seen at http://108.131.197.65/info.php
Your MySQL root user's password is vmZpCJtyE3
You are encouraged to run mysql_secure_installation to ready your server for production.

If you need to see the message again, run: cat /etc/motd.tail
