Telnet access allows clients to take advantage of easy maintenance of their sites in a UNIX shell. Clients are able to roam through their sites, change permissions, move files, delete files, and debug scripts. Compiling programs is also possible. Telnet access also allows for manipulation of mySQL databases. All accounts come with one shell account.


Using terminal software such as CRT, clients can remotely log into the server and execute system commands directly from the terminal, as if the user were logged directly in from the console. 



Telnet allows you direct access to your files. The files can be updated and saved easily, avoiding the need to transport them from your client to the server. Since you are working directly on the server with Telnet, any changes you make to any of your files are done right away. Thus, you can update content on your website quicker and easier than FTP in most cases.



Unlike other hosting companies who let their clients use a shell which allows access to the data of other clients, our custom shell, ctsh is completely secure. Our ctsh shell jails all users to their account, so you can be assured that we do not compromise security with Telnet access!
