SSH Server Management

Adding a Server

2. Fill in the connection details:
   • Name: A friendly label for the server
   • Host: Hostname or IP address
   • Port: SSH port (default: 22)
   • Username: Your SSH username

Authentication Methods

Password

Enter your SSH password. It will be stored encrypted using Electron's safeStorage API.

Private Key

Select your private key file (e.g., ~/.ssh/id_rsa). If the key has a passphrase, enter it in the passphrase field.

Multiple Accounts

Each server can have multiple authentication accounts. This is useful when you need to connect as different users (e.g., deploy, root, admin).

To add an account:

1. Edit the server
2. Scroll to Accounts
3. Add a new account with its own username and credentials

Categories

Organize your servers into custom categories:

• Assign a category when creating/editing a server
• Categories appear as collapsible groups on the home screen
• Servers without a category appear under "Uncategorized"
