The Service Provider Retrix Hosting

Using Telnet / SSH

Retrix Hosting no longer supports the “telnet” protocol due to its insecure nature. Instead, customers must use the SSH protocol to access a shell.

Connect to [username].retrix.net (where username is your username for your account. eg: “mike”, “patrick”, etc…). Upon connecting you will need to supply your username and password.
