How do I use SSH once SSH acccess has been granted?
Using SSH
Open SSH Homepage

Secure Shell is a program to log into another computer over a network, to execute commands in a remote machine, and to move files from one machine to another. It provides strong authentication and secure communications over unsecure channels. It is intended as a replacement for telnet, rlogin, rsh, and rcp. For SSH2, there is a replacement for FTP: sftp. (source - http://www.employees.org/~satch/ssh/faq/ )

SSH does not come activated by default. Due to security precautions we require that a photo ID (scanned image) be sent to us before activating SSH access on any account. To activate SSH on your account, send us a scan of your photo ID that matches the name on your account.

SSH requires separate software much like FTP. For Windows & MAC users we suggest using PuTTy.exe.

To log in using PuTTy you download the application and run by clicking on http://www.controls.page-zone.com/putty_icon.gif

This will open an application which looks similar to the example below:

Be sure to enter your website address where shown, and check the SSH radio button shown inside the red oval above. Press OPEN to begin.

You should then see a black terminal screen like the one below. You enter your username and password when asked and you should find yourself looking at your root folder (home/username).

Once you are logged in you can type "help" to see a list of available commands.

See this website for a list of common Linux commands.
