Issue

I have installed Ubuntu20.04 using the Ionos 1&1 CloudPanel.

Then I logged in to my server with Putty.

After entering the password for "root", it shows me:

root@reverent-stonebraker:~#

I googled "reverent-stonebraker", but since it didn't yield any results, I am confused what this actually means.

What does this mean?

Solution

It's the hostname of your machine. It was generated randomly, apparently using Docker's algorithm.
