SSH Telnet

Secure Shell, better known as SSH, is a cryptographic network protocol used to execute commands on a remote server or to exchange information between a hosting server and a client. Given that the data exchanged by the two sides is encrypted, a 3rd party won't be able to intercept it, which makes SSH a preferred means of managing a web hosting account. The commands that can be executed depend on the type of hosting service. On a shared web server, for example, the choices are limited since you will not have root access to the hosting server, so you may only create/move/delete files, create and unpack archives, export and import databases, etcetera. They are all actions which are carried out in the shared hosting account and do not need a higher level of access. Through a virtual or a dedicated server, you shall have the option to install server-side software or to restart the server or only a particular service (web server, database server, etc.). SSH commands are submitted through a command line, and if you do not use a UNIX-like OS, there are a variety of applications for other OSs, you can use to connect to the remote server as well.

SSH Telnet in Shared Web Hosting

When you have a shared web hosting account with our company and you'd like to handle your content remotely via SSH, you can receive SSH access to the account using your Hepsia Control Panel. If your package does not include this feature as standard, you could add it with several clicks from the Upgrades menu. In the SSH section of the Control Panel, you'll see the host, the port number and the username that you need to use when you connect to the account. You could also pick what password you would like to use, since it doesn't have to be the same as the one for your account. We have prepared a lot of Help articles in which you can easily find all the commands you will be able to use with a shared hosting plan, along with examples of how they are used. Moreover, if SSH access is allowed for your account, you'll be able to establish a Secure FTP (SFTP) connection using a standard client like FileZilla, for instance.

SSH Telnet in VPS Servers

All our VPS server packages feature SSH access by default, so you shall not have to include any upgrades or activate anything - the instant the server is set up and you receive its login information, you shall be able to connect through its primary IP address and the login credentials which you have chosen through the signup procedure. Because the VPS accounts feature full root-level access, there are no restrictions regarding the commands which you can run. Your server shall be isolated from the other ones on the physical machine, so you shall be able to manage more or less everything using a command line, including server-side software installations and reboots. Thus, you are able to work with your files, databases and any apps you install in a fast and risk-free way.
