=>Root is the most powerful account that can create,
modify, delete accounts,
and make changes to system configuration files.
Even root can delete its entire operating system as well,
2.=>Then Linux kernel is not an operating system.
It is a small software within Linux operating system
that takes commands from you, from users,
and pass them through the system hardware and peripherals.
3.=>How do we connect Linux remotely?
So first thing is if you are connecting
to your Linux machine from a Windows machine,
then your Windows machine has to have a client called PuTTY,
P-U-T-T-Y, which you have to download and install.
Once you have that downloaded and installed,
then you get an IP address of your Linux machine.
You enter the IP address right here in this field,
and then you load and open,
and then it will allow you to connect
to your Linux machine remotely through the command line.
4.=>
If you are using Windows 10 or newer version,
then you do not need to install the PuTTY client
on your Windows machine.
So the Windows newer operating systems
already has SSH built-in client.
All you have to do is go to your command prompt
and simply type SSH,
and you will see all the options that it gives you.
So if you know the IP address of your Linux machine,
all you have to do is type it in SSH + Space +
followed by the IP address of your Linux machine
that you're trying to connect to,
and you will be able to connect without having
to download and install PuTTY client.
Similarly, if you are using a Mac
and you want to connect to your Linux machine remotely,
then you do not,
I repeat, you do not need this PuTTY client.
All you need is simply open up your command line
and type SSH + Space + the IP address of your Linux machine.
Also, I put it down here,
if you already have a Linux machine
and you're trying to connect
to your another Linux machine remotely,
you would do the same thing.
You open up a command prompt,
type SSH + Space + the IP address of the Linux machine
that you're trying to connect to.
