Connecting SSH at Hostgator Shared Hosting

 Yes, you read it right! Hostgator. I know it's a bit of conventional but there are still small sites that uses shared hosting such as HostGator.

Anyway, how-to connecting SSH of HostgGator is just around the web and this post is basically my bookmark so I don't have to hunt around the web again.

Key points:

  • At cPanel account find SSH and Manage Keys
  • Add key. Private key usually created automatically.
  • Download Private Key (ppk format)
  • At Kitty / Putty (I'm using Windows) 
    • add host IP address
    • Private key at SSH
    • Set port 2222
  • Connect
