All of our Linux-based shared hosting accounts (more info) and servers (VPS or dedicated) let you connect to them via SSH using a client. We recommend using…

After downloading and installing one of these clients, use the following settings to connect via SSH:

Field What to enter…
Host Name or IP Address Your account’s domain name or IP address

Web & Classic / cPanel shared / Server

Port 22
Username Your account’s primary username

Web & Classic / cPanel shared / Server

Password Your account’s password

Web & Classic / cPanel shared / Server

Once you have entered the host name or IP address and the port, open the connection. Once connected, you will be prompted for the user name and password.
