How do I access my VPS server?


Accessing your VPS server can be accomplished in a few steps. Here’s a general way to do it:

1. Determine your Server’s IP address: You can usually find this in the email sent by your hosting provider when you rent the server space, or in your host’s control panel.

1. Use a SSH client: A SSH client is a software which uses the Secure Shell protocol to connect to a remote computer. For windows, one commonly used client is Putty, while Mac users can use the terminal.

For example, to use SSH in the terminal (MacOS and Linux), you type `ssh root@your_server_ip`. Here ‘root’ should be replaced by the username you wish to login as, and ‘your_server_ip’ should be replaced with your server’s IP address. If you’re using Putty, you need to enter your IP address in the `Host Name (or IP address)` box, select `SSH` as your connection type, then click open to log in.

1. Log in: In the terminal or command line that pops up, you should be prompted to enter the password for the username. If your credentials are correct, you’ll be logged in.

Note: this is a general process, specifics might slightly differ depending on the VPS provider, the operating system running on your server, and the SSH client you’re using. Also, it’s important to remember not to share your server’s IP, your username, or your password, as they can be used to access your server.

Remember, this will only give you command-line access. If you want a graphical interface, you’ll need to set up a remote desktop, which is more complicated and generally requires a server with a decent amount of resources.
