SSH Client Setup

In order to connect a system that SSH (Like a Linux server e.g.) you'll need a Terminal service program. We prefer MobaXterm it's simple and most of the guides on Four Seasons Hosting will use this program. Let's connect to our server! Once your server (Linux VPS) has been created and delivered, you'll get the following information Username, password, IP address, all this information will be needed. If you not have seen the email please open a ticket with support team and they will be able to help out.

Connecting the First Time#

Once you've installed MobaXterm open it up and you'll get a pretty detailed view. So at the top left of the screen look for a button called "Session"

you will not be able to see the password as you type it for security reasons
Once in you'll see something like this
