Disable SSH Password Authentication

Turns off password login for every user, so only key holders can connect.

This is what ends brute force attempts against the server: no password exists to guess. Keep your current session open and open a second one to test, because a mistake here locks everyone out until you use the provider console.

When you need this: After you have logged in with a key at least once and confirmed it works.
