This article describes how to get an SSH program for your computer and use it to ssh into your server.

---------------------------------------------------

DETAILS:

SSH is a secure replacement for telnet, allowing you to have shell access to *NIX systems. It is very similar to telnet but protects you by encrypting all communication to and from the server, preventing eavesdroppers on the Internet from intercepting your sensitive data such as passwords, etc.

 

Telnet access is disabled on all Revion.com hosting services to protect your privacy. SSH is a drop-in replacement for telnet, giving you all the power plus more security for shell access to your hosting service.
