Remote Administration

To remotely administer the server, a secure shell program needs installed to accept incoming SSH connections. Install the program with this command:

sudo apt install openssh-server

And then configure the program by editing its settings file with this command:

sudo nano /etc/ssh/sshd_config

And to use the new settings, restart the SSH daemon with this command (or restart the server):

sudo systemctl restart sshd

Then, from another Linux client terminal:

ssh oem@IPADDRESS

From a Windows computer:Download PuTTY
