You may connect to your server from within your control panel using the SSH (Secure Shell) form of Telnet. 

Many of the features of Telnet are already available in a more user friendly format within your control panel. This feature is for more advanced users. 

How it works:

Using the SSH form of Telnet ensures that all information passes between your local computer and the server in an encrypted form. 

Clicking on the SSH Telnet icon within your control panle.

A Java based tool will downloaded and run automatically in a new window. 

You will see a prompt for your SSH Server/Alias with your domain name already displayed. 

Simply press enter.

You will be prompted for your login (username) which you must then enter.

If you get a pop up box stating "Host was not found pre-installed"

simply ignore it and click "Yes" to the "Continue anyway?" prompt. 

You will be prompted for your master account password which you must then enter. 

You should then see the bash$ shell prompt. 

When you are ready to close your connection, enter "exit" to log out and then shut down the pop up box. 

Return to the main control panel menu by using your browser's back button.
