Connect to your VPS via SSH

Learn how to connect to your Linux VPS via SSH. This guide will give you the process to connect to your VPS via SSH using Putty on a Windows base machine.

Accessing SSH from Windows

To access your Linux Server using SSH (all Linux variants) we recommend downloading the program 'Putty'.

To connect you need to use a SSH Client. Grab Putty at: http://www.chiark.greenend.org.uk/~sgtatham/putty/download.html

For Windows users just download 'putty.exe' on Intel x86.

The download is not a setup file, it is the actual program, so put it wherever you like (desktop is handy).

  • Double click on 'Putty'
  • Enter the Host Name or IP Address of the Server - you can get these details from the hosting welcome letter you received when signing up to our service.
  • Ensure the connection type is 'SSH'
  • Enter a name you can easily identify for your connection
  • Click 'Save'
  • Click 'Open'
  • You will now be prompted to login
  • Enter the username: root
  • Password: the password in your hosting welcome letter.

If you need to be able to move/copy files from your local computer to the Linux Server or even modify files through a graphical interface you can use WinSCP. You can download WinSCP from https://winscp.net/eng/download.php
