Getting started
Connecting to a Windows server
Updated 26 Oct 2026
Windows servers are reached with Remote Desktop, not SSH.
- Open Remote Desktop Connection (Windows) or Microsoft Remote Desktop (macOS, from the App Store).
- Enter the server's address from the dashboard, and sign in as
Administratorwith the password under Access. - Change the Administrator password after the first login (Ctrl+Alt+End inside the session → Change a password).
If the server is behind one of our shared addresses, the dashboard shows the public port to use, e.g. 203.0.113.10:33890.
