    [SOLVED] Ubuntu SSH

    Trying to connect to an external (Ubuntu) server via SSH. I've been given a port number, (externally accessible) IP address, and username. Could someone give me the format for entering this stuff into the terminal, or, if that isn't allowed, some other means of connecting? Thanks!

    Welcome to LinuxForums!

    Typically, it would be something like

    Code:
    ssh username@IP_address:port_number

    I do not respond to Private Messages asking for Linux help. Please, keep it on the public boards.
