SSH Access — Autimit VPS
Requirements
- SSH client installed (Linux/macOS native, Windows via WSL or Git Bash)
- Ed25519 SSH key generated locally
1. Generate SSH Key
If you don't have a key yet, run:
ssh-keygen -t ed25519 -f ~/.ssh/id_ed25519_autimit -N "" -C "autimit"
This creates two files:
~/.ssh/id_ed25519_autimit— private key (never share this)~/.ssh/id_ed25519_autimit.pub— public key (send this to the admin)
2. Send Your Public Key to the Admin
Export the public key content:
cat ~/.ssh/id_ed25519_autimit.pub
Send the output to the VPS administrator so it can be added to the server.
3. Configure the SSH Client
Edit (or create) the file ~/.ssh/config:
Host autimit
HostName ssh.autimit.com
User root
IdentityFile ~/.ssh/id_ed25519_autimit
4. Connect to the VPS
ssh autimit
