  4. Re-enter new password for user stackops to use for future login

Step 3: Reconnect to vServer

Option 2: Login SSH with SSH KEY

If you have already created an SSH Key Pair on VNGCLOUD portal (Click here for instructions on creating SSH Keys) and have added SSH Key to vServer during initialization, you can do the following steps:

Step 1: Use Linux Terminal to connect to vServer

ssh -i ~/Download/private_key01.pem -p 234 stackops@61.28.233.113
