DotVPS Putty Setup - Tommy Chong - Mar 25, 2012
How the fuck do I connect to my Virtual Servers - Standard VPS ( US )
with putty?

Type in the ip leave it as port 22, select SSH, click connect.
a black window will open, tpye in your user name and click enter. Then type in your password but no letters will appear, thats fine and then click enter again. And you should go through to the cmd prompt.

Do you get any errors at all or does it just not load?
* - Tommy Chong - Mar 26, 2012
It says invalid password.
I don't know what username to use.
I put my dot99--- username in and my pass and it says "authentication error, wrong password"

No there should be a separate user name and password. When you bought your VPS there should have been a box saying NS1/NS2 name and your root password.
