Greetings!

I’m sorry that this has caused so much trouble. I understand first hand how frustrating that can be. If this keeps happening to you, it should be true that something unique to your situation is the underlying cause. Generally this means one of two things:

• Public facing software that contains a vulnerability, being exploited by a remote party.
• Compromised root password (shared with a compromised website, easily guessed, things like that).

I know that’s a little vague but if it keeps happening, it’s surely one of those. It’s just hard for me to know which one it might be.

Hi there jarland

About the reasons why I’m getting disconnected so often… I think the second one is not the case, ‘cause yesterday I used (for the very first time) pair-key authentication. About the first one, that one may be a reason. However, I took some measures given in the community, like… Creating a firewall, whitelist IPs. So I really don’t know what else I should do.

My application is a Library Software called Koha, and this has two interfaces which I access using IP and the ports 8080 (intranet) and 8081 (Catalog). it doesn’t have a domain or a SSL certificate and I think these are not mandatory to keep working in my droplet.

I would appreciate any guidance or tips to solve this problem

Without notifying us, DIGITAL ocean just disconnect from us from network. What a business very damn supportive to customer that paid regularly.

Hello i just get the same problem. I think in my case, it is compromised password. 3 Days ago, my consultant just changed root password to an easy one.

How to connect the Droplet back online?

I have the same problems three times:
