SSH remains disabled by default on all hosting accounts (excluding VPS and Dedicated Server). If you need SSH access, contact support to enable it for you.
Enable SSH Access
Open a support ticket to enable SSH access for your hosting account.
Reseller Hosting:
SSH needs to be enabled on a per cPanel/DirectAdmin account basis. Provide a list of usernames to enable SSH for your cPanel/DirectAdmin accounts.
VPS and Dedicated Server:
SSH is enabled by default for the root user.
Terminal
The Terminal interface in cPanel, WHM, and DirectAdmin allows you to access SSH without a key pair.
cPanel: Go to cPanel > Advanced > Terminal
WHM: Go to WHM > Server Configuration > Terminal
DirectAdmin: Go to DirectAdmin > User > System Info & Files > Terminal
*For WHM, you will need a VPS/Dedicated Server with root access.
