Connect to a Server

Access to a server occurs in two ways:

• SSH in case of Linux.
• RDP in case of Windows Server.

Connect to a Linux Server

To connect to your Linux instance, use an SSH client through a terminal:

1. Open the terminal and type the command: ssh root@xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx; Replace xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx with the IP address of your instance;
2. Confirm with yes;
3. If you are not using an SSH key, you will be prompted for the access password;

Note

The password is communicated via email and, on first access to the server, must be changed.

Info

Windows users can make use of PuTTY.

Connect to a Windows server

To connect to a Windows server, you need an RDP client, usually available in Windows 7, 8, 10, and 11 operating systems.

1. Open the RDP client.
2. Enter the IP address of your instance.
3. Accept the connection.
4. Enter your access credentials.
