→Using SSH on Ubuntu Linux

Where ''username '' is the name of the user you wish to log in as and ''ipaddress'' is the IP address of your system. You can also substitute the hostname of the system in place of the IP address. If you do not know the IP address run the ''ipconfig'' command in a terminal window. This will output information similar to:

In the above output the IP address is shown as ''inet addr:'', in this case 192.168.2.21. Similarly, the hostname may be obtained by running the ''hostname'' tool at a terminal command prompt.
To connect from a remote system perform the same steps above using either the IP address or host name of the remote host to which you connect. Enter your password when prompted and you will find yourself logged into the remote system.
