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.

Bluehost SSH

“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.

SSH allows secure file transfer and remote logins over the internet. Your connection via SSH is encrypted allowing the secure connection. In this section you can manage your SSH keys to allow automation when logging in via SSH. Using public key authentication is an alternative to password authentication. Since the private key must be held to authenticate, it is virtually impossible to brute force.

Before you setup the ssh, make sure you have the ssh client progam ready. I would be recommending PuTTY, a telnet and ssh client program. Which have both windows and linux version available for free download. You can get the ssh client at this link: http://www.chiark.greenend.org.uk/~sgtatham/putty/download.html

The SSH command is linux based. An example is:

pico : friendly, easy to use file editor
pico /home/burst/public_html/index.html : edit the index page for the user’s website.

cd : change directory · · cd /usr/local/apache : go to /usr/local/apache/ directory
cd ~ : go to your home directory
cd – : go to the last directory you were in
cd .. : go up a directory
