So far so stupid.

So far so good.

WHAT THE FRICK

Some google searches later it turned out that 50-cloud-init.conf in sshd_config.d contains "PasswordAuthentication yes" and is loaded after the main config file.

Why do they do this? They even have a shitty javascript KVM, which should allow morons to get access to their system even if they can't figure out how to create ssh keys.

      It was the first google result and it was cheap. I only wanted to test something anyway.
      But this shocked me, especially that they provide setup with a pre-configured ssh key, but still enabled password auth. I'm not even a security focused person.

    No one is going to mitm you.

    Bots trying to guess your passwd is just going to cost you a couple cycles unless you reuse passwords.

    Think of buying from places like ovh and online.net as at your own risk. I've been using them for years and as long as you never need support you're going to love it. The minute you need support you will be filled with rage. Just keep in mind it's up to you to fix up everything how you want it.

      That is one thing. But the default config is automatically online, so there's a short time window in which it's up to the provider.

            I've been on this website since 2005. I found it through an anime fansub IRC channel. I'm not going back to anywhere, newbie.

    The problem is the moronic design of ssh.

    Needing to exchange the SSH certificate across the web is fricking moronic. Put TLS support in SSH already you fricking imcompetents.

      That wasn't the problem. I changed the ssh port successfully. It was just that unexpected other config file, which overrode the password auth setting.
