How do I connect via SSH?

We recommended you to connect to your package via SSH only if you're familiar with the command line interface. We have given instructions below:

Windows

In Windows, you'll need to download an SSH Client to access SSH.

This guide uses PuTTY which is a free SSH client and can be downloaded here: https://www.chiark.greenend.org.uk/~sgtatham/putty/latest.html

1. After you have downloaded PuTTY, search for and open PuTTY Key Generator on your computer.
2. Click Generate and move the mouse cursor around the gray box to generate some Randomness. This will generate a public key.
3. Add a password. Remember this as you'll need it to put into the command line interface.
4. Sign in to Hamro.Cloud, go to Manage Hosting and choose the package where you want SSH access. Select SSH Access which is under Security section.
5. Now, input the public key (which was generated from PuTTYgen) into the Public Key box. A handle will be generated. Select Add Public Key.
6. Go back to PuTTY Gen and Click Save private key. You can give any name of your choice to save this.
7. Then, Open PuTTY. Down the left-hand side, choose to expand SSH menu and select Auth.
8. Click on Browse and add the private key which you have just saved.
9. You’ll need to go back to Session using the left-hand menu and then add the host name ‘ssh.hamrocp.com’. Select Open
10. The command line interface will be shown. You’ll need to login with your domain (e.g. domain.co.uk).
11. You'll then be asked for the password you set earlier. Enter it.
12. Finally, You're provided with the access to SSH file for your site.
