SSH Telnet
Learn exactly what SSH is and how it is possible to manage an entire server along with it.
SSH, or Secure Shell, is a network protocol that's used to connect to a web server and perform various tasks via a command line. The protocol is used by many experienced users, for the reason that the info transmitted over it is encrypted, so it cannot be intercepted on the way by a 3rd party. SSH access can be used for a lot of things depending on the type of web hosting account. With a shared hosting account, for example, SSH is one of the ways to import/export a database or to upload a file in case the web server permits it. If you have a virtual or a dedicated server, SSH may be used for virtually anything - you can install software or restart particular services such as the web server or the database server which run on the machine. SSH is used typically with UNIX-like Platforms, but there are clients which permit you to use the protocol if your computer system is working with a different OS too. The connection is established on TCP port 22 by default and the remote server always listens for incoming connections on that port though lots of providers change it for security reasons.
