Open the Terminal application on your Mac. You can find it in the Utilities folder, which is located within the Applications folder.<br \/>\n2. Type the following command, replacing \"<strong>username<\/strong>\" with your remote server username and \"<strong>server.com<\/strong>\" with your server address:<\/p>\n<p>   `ssh <a target=\"_blank\" href=\"mailto:username@server.com\">username@server.com<\/a>`<\/p>\n<p>   If your server uses a different SSH port than the default port 22, you can specify it using the -p option, followed by the port number. For example:<\/p>\n<p>   `ssh -p 2222 <a target=\"_blank\" href=\"mailto:username@server.com\">username@server.com<\/a>`<\/p>\n<p>3. Press Enter and wait for the connection to be established.<br \/>\n4. You will see a message similar to this:<\/p>\n<p>   `The authenticity of host &#8216;server.com (192.168.0.2)&#8217; can&#8217;t be established.<br \/>\n   RSA key fingerprint is 81:23:s8:44:w3:8a:8d:5c:ea:7e:4c:3d:5f:04:32:0f.<br \/>\n   Are you sure you want to continue connecting (yes\/no)?`<\/p>\n<p>   Type \"<strong>yes<\/strong>\" and press Enter. This is to confirm that you trust the server and its RSA key fingerprint.<br \/>\n5. Type your remote server user password and press Enter. You will not see characters when you type your password.
