To connect to a Linux VPS from Windows, you will need an SSH client. SSH (Secure Shell) is a secure network protocol that allows you to remotely access a Linux server.
There are several SSH clients available for Windows, but in this example, we will use PuTTY, which is a popular and free SSH client.
Steps
- Download PuTTY from https://www.putty.org/ and install it on your computer.
- Open PuTTY.
- In the "Host Name (or IP address)" window, enter the IP address of your Linux VPS. Make sure the selected protocol is SSH.
- Click "Open".
- In the window that opens, enter the username `root` and the password for the Linux VPS that was sent to your email.
- That's it, you are now connected to your Linux VPS from Windows through PuTTY.
Remember that you will need the access credentials (username and password) of the Linux server to connect via SSH. This information was sent to your email when your VPS was activated.
