Can I give someone else access to my VPS?
Yes — you can share access to your VPS, and there are two ways to do it. Shared, multi-user access is being rolled out on our new VPS panel, and separately you can create additional users directly on the machine over SSH.
Panel multi-user access
Multi-user (subuser) access in the panel lets someone help manage your VPS without full machine credentials.
- Multi-user access on the new VPS panel is rolling out.
- If you need shared panel access in the meantime, contact us and we'll help with the current state.
Adding users on the machine yourself
Because you have full root, you can manage Linux users and permissions directly on the VPS at any time — this doesn't depend on the panel rollout.
- Connect to your VPS over SSH as
root. - Create a new user (for example with
adduser) and set their password. - Grant whatever permissions or SSH access they need.
Tip: Since you have full root, you can manage your own Linux users and permissions on the machine directly at any time — a reliable option while panel subusers roll out.
