SSH, which is an abbreviation for Secure Shell, is a network protocol that is used to transfer encrypted info between a client and a server, which makes it impossible for unauthorized parties to intercept any data. Many tech-savvy clients favor SSH mainly because of the better security level. The connection is established and the commands are sent via a command line. The offered options depend on the type of Internet hosting service - on a shared server, for instance, files could be moved or deleted, databases can be imported and exported, and archives can be set up or unpacked. On a virtual or a dedicated server, the options are significantly more - the web server and the database server could be started/stopped/rebooted, server-side software may be set up plus much more. These things aren't possible on a shared server, for the reason that full root access is required and all the other clients on that server will be affected. Even though SSH is used mainly with UNIX-like Operating Systems, there are SSH clients for other OSs too - Windows, Mac OS, and so forth.

SSH Telnet in Cloud Web Hosting

If you have a cloud web hosting account with our company and you want to deal with your content remotely through SSH, you may get SSH access to the account using your Hepsia Control Panel. If your plan doesn't offer this feature as standard, you can easily add it with several clicks through the Upgrades menu. Within the SSH section of the CP, you will see the host, the port number and the username which you should use when you connect to the account. You may also select what password you would want to use, as it doesn't have to be the same as the one for the account. We have prepared several Help articles where you can easily find all of the commands that you will be able to use with a shared hosting plan, along with examples of how they're used. In addition, if SSH access is permitted for your account, you'll be able to establish a Secure FTP (SFTP) connection by using a standard client like FileZilla, for instance.

SSH Telnet in Semi-dedicated Hosting

All our semi-dedicated server accounts offer the possibility to access and manage them through SSH.

If the function is listed as an optional upgrade, you may quickly include it through the Add Services/Upgrades link in the Hepsia Control Panel and it shall be available within a minute. We have a number of help articles and video lessons about the use of SSH commands to handle your account and an entire list of the commands that you can perform together with various examples to provide you with a better idea of what you could do. If SSH is enabled, you shall also be able to establish an SFTP connection to the account and to upload data securely through any FTP app that supports the function.

SSH Telnet in VPS Hosting

You will be able to use SSH to handle your content irrespective of which Linux VPS hosting packages you select when you sign up, as all of our plans offer this function as standard. You'll not have to include or enable anything by hand - as soon as your hosting server is prepared and you receive the Welcome email with the login info, you may connect and begin working on your websites or any software that you would like to install and run on the server. You will have root-level access to the VPS and since the account will be separated from all the other accounts in the physical web server, you'll be able to do anything you'd like with no restrictions. You'll be able to set up any application which you need and which shall run on a Linux-based server, reboot any software server (web, database, game, media, etc.) and handle your files and databases quickly and easily.
