How to Import Existing SSH Key in WHM

In this article we will show you how to add an existing key to WHm in order to access your account via SSH with root privileges.

First, login to WHM and navigate to Home -> Security Center -> Manage root's SSH Keys.

Then, follow these steps:

  • Click on the Import Key button
  • Enter a name for this key in the first field
  • Paste the public key in the corresponding field
  • Click the Import button

*There are fields for Password and Private Key which are not required
