How do I SSH into my server container?

Game-server access is designed around SFTP over SSH for files and the Console for commands, rather than a full interactive shell. That's intentional — a raw shell isn't part of a managed game server.

How it works

For a managed game server, you get secure file access over SSH (via SFTP) and run commands through your server's Console. You don't get a raw root shell into the container, which keeps the managed environment stable and secure.

How to access it

1. Use SFTP (over SSH) for file access, with the address and username from the SFTP button on your server's Files page.
2. Add an SSH key under Account → Security (https://humbleservers.com/client/account/security) to connect without typing your password.
3. Run console commands from your server's Console in the client area (or the panel's Console tab).

Tip: A managed game server intentionally doesn't give a raw root shell, and VPS plans (full root over SSH) aren't sold any more.

Frequently asked questions

Can I use Git Bash or the ssh command? It works for SFTP-style access with your key, but it isn't a full interactive shell — game servers don't offer one.
