SSH stands for Secure SHell, and it allows you to connect remotely to other computers over a network.
|
|
|
|
~vern offers SSH as a service for free to members, and the machine that you connect to is `pubnix` specifically. The machine itself is a virtual machine off of `tilserv` with 4 virtual CPU cores, 8 GBs of memory and 512GB of storage.
|
|
|
|
~vern's SSH service also allows you to host websites, which you can do with [this guide here](/guides/usersites), you can also install and run software with the [installed Nix package manager](/guides/pkgman/)

|
If you haven't created a ~vern account, which is required to connect to this SSH server, then follow [this guide](/guides/register/).
