SSH Connections

SSH or Secure Shell is a network protocol. SSH was designed to replace telnet and other insecure means of connecting to Linux/Unix computers. Please refer to SSH Access if you do not have SSH enabled on your account.

Different versions of SSH exist. The major versions are SSH1 and SSH2. Boxis requires our customers to use the SSH2 protocol as it provides the most up to date protection and security.

SSH is most commonly used to setup secure connections to an SSH daemon running on a remote server. Common uses include securely transferring files, securely logging/remote administration of remote servers, and secure FTP.
