Actually, that last link was a Digital Ocean console through ssh. It looks like they do have recovery console access which is like sitting in from of the machine.

You should be able to log in and change your firewall rules through the console.

Is there a way to log in via your account DigitalOcean?  I did the same thing on my Vultr.com account but I was able to access the terminal via VNC.

I don't remember, but I feel like DO wants you to use SSH keys by default, and opens 22 by default. You should be able to add keys from the console. Can you telnet to port 22 and not get a "port closed" message?

I am creating a "Droplet" on DigitalOcean and discovered something I
want to share and it also prompts a question.

I enabled ufw and opened a few ports.  Then I logged out.  When I tried
to login later I realized I had not opened port 22 SSH.  I thought they
had done that for me.

I contacted support and they told me they could not help because they do
not have access to my server.

1) I learned one more thing - ensure port 22 is open.  Life seems to be
perpetual learning.

2) My question is if someone blocks port 22 or whatever they set SSH to
how can support or anyone else open that port?

Thanks!!
