Accessing Your SSH Account (Shell Access)

SSH Telnet is a secure form of Telnet, using an RSA key. It is a more powerful means of access than FTP in that it allows running scripts, etc.  

At the same time, SSH allows more possibilities for error, and actions which may cause harm to the server. Therefore, SSH access is a privilege to an account. It can be revoked at any time if user's activities appear detrimental to the health of the server.

NOTE: This feature is not active for all plans.  If you do not see the functionality in your control panel to perform these functions, please contact us to request SSH be added to your account.
