SSH access

TIP

Please note that here you can only assign existing SSH keys or profiles to the hosting, but not upload additional SSH keys. The upload/import of your SSH key is done via User Profile section «SSH keys».

SSH activation

To enable SSH access you need a hosting plan «limePRO». SSH access is disabled by default, but you can enable it by simply clicking on the top right activation panel.

Here you can assign one or more SSH keys to your hosting. A login is only possible via SSH key, not via password! You can upload the SSH key in your user profile.

Assign SSH key/profile

If you have defined an SSH profile (a group of SSH keys) in the settings of your current team, you can also assign one or more SSH profiles to your hosting instead of single keys or any combination of them.

Under «Your ~/.ssh/authorized_keys for control» you can check which SSH keys are effectively activated. SSH keys that have not yet been verified by us can be already assigned to the hosting, but will not be activated yet.

Login via SSH

In our support wiki at Shell-Tricks you will find detailed instructions on how to log in to your web server via SSH. But here in short form:

$ ssh webXYZ@webserver
$ cd ~/webhome/public_html/www
