Artem Komarov: Welcome, this is Artem, how can I help you?

you: hi, do ix hosting offering shell access ??

you: how do i get the shell access for my ix account? help

Artem Komarov: Unfortunately, due to shared hosting environment and security reasons we do not allow shell access to our servers.“

If you are looking for shell access due to RoR installation, you can bypass this via ix h-sphere control panel > web option > select your domain > enable RoR. This is how you can enable ruby on rails for your website without going through shell access SSH installation. Additionally is you need to install RoR apps that require shell access, unfortunately it can’t be done in ixwebhosting. Ix web hosting doesn’t provide shell access to their shared hosting account. Alternatively, you will need ixwebhosting vps hosting which allows complete root access and admin access to the server, only via this you can get the RoR Apps installed and configured. Check the ix web hosting virtual private server package for details, ixwebhosting vps start from $29.95 per month.
