SSH Server Access
We have made some changes to our security policy over SSH Access.
Please complete the form attached to this page to apply for SSH access on your web hosting account. On completion you need to return the form to us. Contact Details
Please remember that in most cases FTP or our online file manager can be used to manage your account including editing files and changing permissions.
SSH access should only be requested by technically competent individuals. It is more secure to not enable SSH.
By requesting SSH is enabled you agree that:
- You will not leave your home directory.
- You will not attempt to view or edit other users files.
- You will not attempt to run permanent server side processors.
- You will not attempt to gain extended user privileges on the server.
- You will use your SSH server access purely for managing the website hosted on that account.
- You will fully indemnify us against any damage caused to the server by yourself or anyone who logs in using your credentials.
- You will not start server processes.
All keystrokes for SSH are logged and reviewed each day, please note that any breaches of the above will result in your account being terminated without notice.
