Hi, Ive just donated and followed your install instructions for windows server 2016 on a DO droplet - great guide by the way.

Just a general question - what do you suggest as additional security for windows Remote desktop in securing the server?

i.e. DigitalOcean use putty for SSH keys to a Linux setup - what can be proposed for our windows instance?

Setup Windows firewall to only allow your IP address to access RDP.

Unfortunately not, we only release evaluation versions of Microsoft Windows at this time and do not have any plans to expand further.

DigitalOcean has simply changed the design of their rescue mode, you are safe to proceed to the next step.
