SSH Access

SSH (Secure Shell) is the primary method to remotely access your server. Find access credentials in the activation email for your service.

02

Required Credentials

  • Server IP: visible in client panel or activation email
  • SSH Port: default is 22
  • User: usually root
  • Password: received via email (we recommend changing it immediately)
03

Connection from Linux / macOS

Open terminal and type:

bash
ssh root@SERVER_IP

If SSH port is different from 22:

bash
ssh -p PORT root@SERVER_IP

On first connection you'll be asked to accept server fingerprint: type yes and press Enter.

04

Connection from Windows

Option 1: Windows Terminal / PowerShell (Windows 10/11)

SSH is already included. Open PowerShell or Windows Terminal and use same command:

powershell
ssh root@SERVER_IP

Option 2: PuTTY

  • Download PuTTY
  • Enter server IP in Host Name field
  • Verify port is 22 (or custom one)
  • Click Open
  • Accept fingerprint and enter credentials
