Thanks very much Bek - to be honest I think you need more than 6 minutes to learn SSH but hopefully for web developers this should give you the idea of what it is and how it might be used. Thanks for your feedback! Dziękuję Ci!
I watched many videos on this topic and this video finally worked for me. Thumb up for sure. However I have to say that I have to play it in half speed to be able to use information or process it. Command line line and Linux is my new hobby now and therefore Im beginner. My question is (rhetoric) what is your audience that this video is intended ? I think it is beginner in SSH so I believe video need to mention which application to use to SSH in first place as foundation of explanation. I hope I do not sound hostile. I mentioning it only to make RU-vid better place I guess or hope :-) Thank you for putting it together. Really good stuff.
Yeah root is the username (on the remote server) and the password is whatever has been configured for that user. Not specifically your Internet router password which is something different.
@@codewithbubb strange... I tried that and still didn't work; it's a great video, and it makes sense... It's just the system I'm running is gentoo. I'm building a system for my raspberry pi with systemd.. there's barely any info about systemd as majority is openrc. I keep running into emake files failed to compile or whatever bullshit when the portage is updated, the packages are upgraded fully. Hell, I can't even install flashrom because it keeps saying the target arch is unknown which is bullshit. But putting all that to the side, I got it to work eventually.
Hello, I have a question, I understood that ssh is a protocol for creating a connection to a remote server, what I do not understand is that when I establish a aconnection with the server, which kind of server is it? is it an ftp server, an http server..? How can I know these details
That's a good question. Basically, the 'type' of server you have is just determined by the software you have running on it. For example, if you install FTP software on your server, you could consider it an FTP server. If you install Apache, Nginx or any other web server software, you have a web server. Also, it's not uncommon to have multiple bits of software running on one single server e.g. you might have FTP, Apache, MySQL and SSH all installed to serve a website so you don't need to single out a server to be a specific type. Hope that helps 😀
@@codewithbubb Hello, didn't understand the last part of your response, because of course most people have bunch of services installed on their host (if you run an nmap scan so you see ftp, http, ssh and etc.), so again if I will connect with ssh to this host to which server it will turn me? to the ftp, or to the http or which? you understand what I mean?
@@sagisar if you install vs code on your pc does it mean it is a developer pc? If in the same pc you install a game like super mario will make it a gamer pc? or still a developer pc or both? a server is basically a computer with an OS and some programs installed on it. If you access through ftp there is a good chance that you are using the default port (21) and you can only see the default folder defined for the user logged in. If you access through a browser you probably using the port 80 (http) or 443 (https) to access the website folder (probably through Apache, ngix or both) The best thing you can do to learn this stuff (other than studying) is to try to build a server and play with it. You don’t even need two computers nowadays, you can use docker or vagrant to emulate one
Hey Norman, here's some services that provide free shell access: www.xshellz.com/ blinkenshell.org/wiki/Start sdf.org/ www.openshells.net/ www.polarhome.com/ I haven't tested any of these but I think I have used SDF at one point in the past.
Thanks Yusuf, glad you found it helpful. It's actually quite tricky, trying to condense something into a short period of time like this but hopefully the key points (of SSH in this example) get put across.
Do you mean like a username/password? You would obtain it from your hosting server. Or if you just google 'free ssh accounts' you'll find providers that will give you a free login.
Advice to Windows users: Don't waste your time trying to make sense of what he's on about, just write down the syntax in a text file and copy-paste as needed.
