How do I configure and manage SSH (Secure Shell) access to inexpensive VPS servers?

[bikimays]

Log in to a cheap VPS server , find the SSH config file and open it in a text editor, specify allowed SSH login methods, configure the SSH server to allow or disallow root login, set up a firewall to control access. To manage SSH access, you can use tools such as SSH keys, fail2ban, and SSH session timeouts to improve security and control who can access your server.
