Once you have gathered all the necessary SSH connection information, [download Putty](https://www.chiark.greenend.org.uk/~sgtatham/putty/latest.html).

**Step 1 - Launch PuTTY SSH Client**

1. Begin by launching the PuTTY SSH client. You can typically find it in your computer's programs or applications menu.
2. In the PuTTY window that appears, enter your server's SSH IP address and the SSH Port in their respective fields.
3. Click the "Open" button to initiate the SSH connection process.

**Step 2 - Enter Your SSH Username**

1. After clicking "Open," a login prompt will appear as "login as:" in the PuTTY terminal window. Here, you need to enter your SSH username, by default it's "root".
2. Once you've entered your SSH username, press the "Enter" key.

**Step 3 - Enter Your SSH Password**

1. Next, you'll be prompted to enter your SSH password. For security reasons, as you type your password, the characters won't be displayed on the screen, but PuTTY will register what you're typing.
2. You'll find the password, in the email you received. You can copy it and right-click in putty to paste it, press the "Enter" key.

**Step 4 - Successful Connection**

🎉 That's it! You have now successfully connected to your Linux Server using Putty. You can use this connection to manage your server and perform various tasks remotely.
