Connect to your VPS with SSH

Confirm connection details

Collect the server IP address, assigned username, and authentication method. Key-based authentication is preferred over password-only access.

Connect from your terminal

Use a standard command such as ssh root@your-server-ip or the user provided during onboarding. Add the private key path if required.

Harden access

After the first login, change credentials where applicable, add key-based access for administrators, and review firewall rules before exposing new services.
