Hey guys,
I really messed up my SSH trying to harden and secure it but I jacked up the config so I can no longer remote into my server.
Is there anyway I can revert the SSH to default via the panel?
Thanks guys… Please be a yes.
Sorry to say, but it’s a no. Expect something hacky like a webshell in admin user, but I never tried. The only way would be to use a vnc or kvm interface service which usualy should be provided from your hosting provider. There you can login as root and try to fix your ssh config.

Daaaaaaamn, I was afraid that would be the answer, thanks man.
There is a possibility to make changes in the file “/etc/ssh/sshd_config” from https://sub.domain.tld:8083/edit/server/ssh/ and restart the service from the panel. I don’t know if it will help you…
For example, you could change “PermitRootLogin no” and/or “PasswordAuthentication no” to “yes”.

That could be indeed a solution, sorry about that, I always forgot the edit config function over the interface, due to the fact I never use it.

Damn! I already backed everything up, reloaded the server and restored everything.
Oh well it wasn’t that much work but at least I know if I goof up like that again!
Thanks @Wibol
Least this will help others in the future!
