SSH Telnet
Find out more about SSH and how this simple protocol can provide you with the ability to quickly maintain whole web servers.
SSH, which is an abbreviation for Secure Shell, is a network protocol which is used to transfer protected data between a client and a web server, making it impossible for unauthorized parties to intercept any information. Many tech-savvy users prefer SSH because of the improved level of security. The connection is made and the commands are delivered using a command line. The accessible options depend on the type of Internet hosting service - on a shared server, for instance, files could be transferred or deleted, databases can be imported and exported, and archives can be created or unpacked. On a virtual or a dedicated server, the options are a lot more - the web server and the database server may be started/stopped/rebooted, server-side software could be installed and much more. These things aren't possible on a shared server, because full root access is needed and all the other customers on that server will be affected. Even though SSH is employed predominantly with UNIX-like Operating Systems, there are SSH clients for other OSs as well - Windows, Mac OS, and so on.
