macOS/Windows tutorial on using SSH private key connection to log in to DMIT

I introduced the "DMIT New User Registration and Purchase Tutorial" before. DMIT cannot be connected remotely using the root password. You can only log in through an SSH key. If you have not used a private key to log in, you may not know how to connect to DMIT locally. , so this article briefly introduces how to use SSH private keys to remotely connect to DMIT on macOS and Windows.

1. DMIT SSH key download

The first step is to download the SSH key. You can download the SSH password corresponding to each DMIT VPS on the DMIT background service page. Click "SSH Key Management":

It should be noted that the DMIT SSH key can only be downloaded once. If it is lost, you need to enter the management page to regenerate it. After regeneration, you need to restart the DMIT VPS to take effect (Reboot button):

By default, both the SSH public key and the SSH private key are downloaded. We only need the private key (private_key):

Enter the IP address of DMIT VPS, select the SSH type, click "Data" under "Connection" on the right, and fill in "root" after "Auto-login username":

Then click to expand "SSH" on the right, then select "Auth", click "Browse" to select your private key in ".ppk" format, and finally click "Open" to successfully log in to DMIT:

After that, you can use DMIT VPS normally:

The above is how to connect and log in to DMIT VPS on macOS and Windows. Since only key login is supported, it may be a bit difficult for those who have not used it before. I hope this DMIT tutorial will be helpful to everyone.
