This is a How To for Putty.exe which is a client that allows Raw, Telnet, SSH, and Rlogin conncetions. Putty.exe is free to download and the download link is included below. Putty.exe is vital in running and managing a dedicated server. If you are not using Windos you will either need one for a MAC or if you are in *nix already you wont need Putty.exe
- Save Putty.exe onto your
local computer system.
Right Click Save As

pre-configured for SSH or your server so you will

the Port to 22

or Server1
Once the above info is typed in.

- Now anytime you load putty.exe
and want to connect to your server you
simply double click the "server name here" you entered
above.
It will be right under the "Default Settings"

to your server and It will ask you for
your username / password.
- Once you enter that information
you will be logged into your server via SSH.
