SSH Telnet
Would you like to find out what Telnet is and what it can be employed for?
Secure Shell, better known as SSH, is a cryptographic network protocol employed to execute commands on a remote server or to exchange information between a website hosting server and a client. Because the info exchanged by the 2 sides is protected, a 3rd party simply cannot intercept it, which makes SSH a favored means of controlling a website hosting account. The commands which may be executed depend on the type of hosting service. On a shared hosting server, for example, the alternatives are limited since you will not have root access to the hosting server, so you can only create/move/delete files, set up and unpack archives, import and export databases, and so forth. These are all actions which are executed inside the shared hosting account and don't require a higher level of access. By using a virtual or a dedicated server, you'll be able to install server-side software or to restart the hosting server or just a certain service (web server, database server, etc.). SSH commands are submitted through a command line, and if you do not use a UNIX-like Operating System, there are a number of apps for other OSs, that you can use to connect to the remote web server as well.
