instructions on how to connect to hostgator's ssh are given here http://forums.hostgator.com/showthread.php?t=13038 as someone who has
never used ssh before i dont find those instructions explicit enough.
It just says i need to "connect" to the server not how or through what?
I'm a mac user so i gather that i need to use terminal but thats as far
i know.
they emailed me saying:
" Hi,
jailshell is now enabled on 'mysite' / 'myusernam'e. Please be aware
that you will have to connect to port 2222, as port 22 is disabled for
security reasons. "
they also said no-one there was familiar with connecting to the server
via a mac!
so through terminal what would i need to type to make the connection?
This isn't really a ruby question, but in the interests of being nice,
open up Terminal (it can be found in /Applications/Utilities) and enter
man ssh
This should set you on the right path.

This isn't really a Rails question, but I'll answer it anyhow.
In terminal type: ssh yourusername@yourdomain.com:2222
It may be (space)2222 or -p 2222 rather than :2222; I can't remember
(I'm on my work machine that's windows). It should ask for your
password; input that and you should be good to go.
