Yes, Forge sends you an email with a sudo password.
Looks like this:
Server Details:
Name:

forge password on Digital Ocean
I have a server on Digital Ocean and I use Forge.
I've added my public key so I can ssh to the server using ssh [email protected] in the Terminal.
I reset the root password from digitalocean.com, so I can su, enter the password and do things like apt-get upgrade, reboot, etc.
So far so good.
My question is. Am I supposed to have a password for the forge user on my server as well? From googling it looks like I should have received an email with the password when the server was created through Forge, but I don't have it anymore.

OK. Thanks. Maybe I changed the password, deleted the email and forgot to save the new password to my password manager. I'll just change it on the server, then.
