Here are the important steps summarized to enable standard account SSH access on your Dedicated Server.

- First, generate SSH key pair for the account
- Open WHM on your DS and go to Account Functions > Modify an Account
- Now, activate SSH Access from the Shell Access check Box
- Login to your DS as root user via SSH
- Navigate to home/ user/ .ssh folder
cd /home/user/.ssh

In this command, change username with the actual username of the account for which you want to allow SSH

- Enter the following Shell scripts
vi authorized_keys

The file will be opened in a text editor. Press i key from the keyboard to insert the text and paste the public key, which you have already generated.

Go to "Esc", type ":wq!" ( without the quotes) and press "Enter" to save the modified file

- Execute the following command in the shell prompt:

iptables -I INPUT -s CustomerIP -p tcp --dport 18765 -j ACCEPT

Now, change the CustomerIP with the IP of the computer which needs the SSH connection.

- Restart your firewall:

/etc/init.d/firewall restart
/etc/init.d/sshd restart
