Linux VPS: Web SSH and SSH Gateway Access and Management<\/h1>\n

This article focuses on efficiently accessing and managing your Linux VPS using Web SSH and SSH Gateway methods. It provides step-by-step instructions for tasks such as creating directories and files through a web-based terminal and setting up secure SSH connections using generated keys<\/a>.<\/p>\n

By following this guide, you’ll gain a solid understanding of how to utilize these tools for seamless and secure server operations.<\/p>\n

1. Access VPS via WEB SSH Terminal<\/h2>\n

Step 1.<\/strong> Log into your VPS using the WEB SSH<\/a> terminal.<\/p>\n

Step 2.<\/strong> Navigate to Home Directory: cd \/home<\/p>\n

Step 3.<\/strong> Create a New Directory: mkdir files<\/p>\n

Step 4.<\/strong> Enter the New Directory: cd files<\/p>\n

Step 5.<\/strong> Create New Files: touch abc.txt touch xyz.txt<\/p>\n

Step 6.<\/strong> Verify File Creation: \u2018ls\u2019 to list the files.<\/p>\n

\"Login<\/a><\/p>\n

2. Linux VPS Access via SSH gate<\/h2>\n

Step 1.<\/strong> For the generation of private and public keys<\/a> to establish a connection via SSH, run the following command on your computer\u2019s terminal:<\/p>\n

ssh-keygen -t rsa\r\n<\/code><\/pre>\n
Step 2. <\/strong>Enter the address of the file where you want to save both of your keys.<\/p>\n
Step 3. <\/strong>Enter a passphrase for your connection.<\/p>\n
The addresses at which both of your keys will be saved are displayed.<\/p>\n
\"ssh-keygen<\/a><\/p>\n
Step 4.<\/strong> Click on \u201cNew Environment<\/strong>\u201d to create a new environment. For this example, we have selected an Elastic server.<\/p>\n
\"Elastic<\/a><\/p>\n
Step 5. <\/strong>Select \u201cSettings\u201d<\/strong>.<\/p>\n
\"Settings\"<\/a><\/p>\n
Step 6. <\/strong>Select the \u201cPublic Keys\u201d<\/strong> section under the \u201cSSH Access\u201d<\/strong> menu. Click on \u201cAdd Public Key\u201d<\/strong> to add a new public key.\"Add<\/a><\/p>\n
Step 7. <\/strong>Add the name of your key, and the public key generated for your SSH connection. For example, here we are naming the key \u201cTest Key\u201d<\/strong>. Click on \u201cADD\u201d<\/strong>.<\/p>\n
\"Add<\/a><\/p>\n
Step 8. <\/strong>As we can see the newly created key is attached and can be now used for SSH Access.<\/p>\n
\"Added<\/a><\/p>\n
Step 9. <\/strong>You will get an email containing information about the SSH Key that has been attached.<\/p>\n
\"Email<\/a>Step 10. <\/strong>Under \u201cSSH\u201d<\/strong> connection tab, copy the given command line<\/p>\n
\"Copy<\/a><\/p>\n
Step 11. <\/strong>Enter the command \u2018ssh 453@gate.cp-accuweb.cloud -p 3022\u2019<\/strong> from your local terminal.<\/p>\n
Step 12. <\/strong>Then select the environment which you want to access through your local terminal.<\/p>\n
\"Access<\/a><\/p>\n
Step 13. <\/strong>Select the container which you want to access.<\/p>\n
\"Select<\/a>Now you can make the changes as required. For example: we created a \u2018test\u2019 directory and created a file, \u2018abc.txt\u2019 inside it.<\/p>\n
\"Changes<\/a><\/p>\n
Thus, setting up an SSH gateway to your Linux VPS has many benefits regarding security and usability. This is because you can simply manage your server thereby taking care of your information and ensuring the smooth running of systems.<\/p>\n
