How to connect to your VPS using SSH Print

SSH is the standard way to manage a Linux VPS or dedicated server from the command line.

1. Open a terminal on macOS/Linux, or PowerShell on Windows.
2. Run ssh root@YOUR_SERVER_IP or use the username provided in your welcome email.
3. When prompted, accept the host key fingerprint if it matches your server.
4. Enter the password or use your SSH private key.

If the connection fails, verify that the server is powered on, port 22 is open, and your local network is not blocking outbound SSH.
