As in previous posting, i wrote some introduction to SSH and how to get connected to blue host server. This tutorial continue with, how to setup the ssh connection, and what you need to do to get started.
Login to your bluehost cpanel.. version 10. Scroll the way down to “system tool”.. and click the “SSH/shell access”. This will bring you to the telnet and secure ssh page.
“For security reasons, shell access is not enabled by default. In order to activate shell access on your account, you will need to fax or mail a copy of your driver’s license, passport or other photo id to customer service. You can fax it to +1 (801) 765-1992 or you can submit your scanned photo ID directly to our helpdesk in the following form”
That is exactly what you need to do, to get approval to use the SSH connection. Not only bluehost, other hoster is doing the same. No anonymous user is allow to ssh or telnet to server and do what ever they want. Security come first.
