<p class="MsoNormal">Yes, I'd agree with Mike on that. If you're creating the VPS manually you could use a temporary password for root, then create a standard user and disable the root.<u></u><u></u></p>

<p>The initial root login is designed to give you an easy way in so you can configure the system, locking down root login and removing that key from the system (after adding additional users and allowing them to sudo to root.)<u></u><u></u></p>
<p>Think of that initial SSH key as a deployment key - login once with it, then use Ansible to setup your system with new users and various other state.
