This is a brief tutorial on how to SSH (Secure Shell) into your HostGator account. It took me a few minutes and a chat with tech support to get this going. I hope this helps someone since it is not very well documented on HostGator, at least I couldn’t find it easily.

KUDOS!
Thank you for this! I too searched for this information on HostGator and was unable to find it.
Great job!
FYI chmod 777 on a Hostgator shared account will give you the 500 Internal server error.

Very good point! Next time I make a screencast, I’ll be more careful. Thanks.
