So... now that I have shell access via terminal.app how do I install the bitsharesx cli?

http://wiki.bitshares.org/index.php/BitShares_X_Delegate_How-To

Didn't know this existed... should def be stickied in this sub!

When I input sudo apt-get update I get: sudo: apt-get: command not found

What do?

K... how do I connect from terminal now. It should look something like ssh [email protected] but I'm not sure what it will be for my specific server...

It's [username]@[URL or ip address] if that helps...

EDIT: root@[URL or ip address], given that the keys you generated were for root.

You want a plain terminal, not a file manager, just to clarify.

Is there Putty for osx?  Also, OSX has a shell built in (OSX started out as FreeBSD). You can just use that without issue.

Also, once you're in to a proper ssh shell it should be too bad to walk you through the install. You don't need a full GUI compile so that makes life easier.

Thanks for the help btw!

I've successfully generated a new SSH public and private key with NO PASSWORD, RSA and the key size is 1024.

I'm now looking for SSH file managers that work with OS X. I've found http://www.rbrowser.com/... any recommendations?

rsa

Though if you can ssh in normally it's not really needed.

It works well for accessing the server without a password.

This may help with that: http://www.linuxproblem.org/art_9.html

DSA or RSA, what should I choose?

Also, it's Linux, forgot to mention that.

What are your permissions on the server? What is the OS?

It's a dedicated server, looks like I have "normal shell" access (as opposed to "jailed shell"). I'm in a section of WHM called "Manage root's SSH Keys"... it lets me generate a key for shell access. Do I need to do this?

Ok so I'm trying to install a delegate on a dedicated server I own. The server is located in California; I control it remotely through "WebHost Manager" (WHM). How do I install the cli (?) on the server?

I am no techy, by any stretch of the imagination, but you will not manage to install it using 'WebHost Manager'....

Yeah I def need to do this via the command line. I'll contact support and have them enable SSH if it isn't already.
