How to set up SSH connection

Beginner stuff

I have looked for these things multiple times. Guide on Zone.ee page – really good. List of common SSH commands on Mediatemple page. Useful guide on how to Set Up SSH Keys on Ubuntu 18.04 DigitalOcean page.

Some very basic commands

Print list of directories only.

ls -d */

Get public key in Ubuntu terminal.

cat ~/.ssh/id_rsa.pub

Delete folder

rm -rf foldername/

Zip folder (found it here)

zip -r filename.zip foldername/

Unzip

unzip archive.zip

What is it good for?

I have mainly found myself using it for deleting large set of files which either crash or take too much time to delete by using FTP. For example when deleting Magento, WP or Prestashop installations 🙂
