User with shell access
I am a relatively new VPS user configuring Django, and I ssh as root to do this. Most of my experience is with high-performance workstations, and normally I would disable ssh by root and rely on sudo as another user. Even if I retain ssh by root, I would prefer to ssh as another user for routine purposes then sudo.
Can I create a user account for this purpose? If so, how? I tried creating another cPanel user through WHM but became tangled with domains, etc.
Should I just create a user account at the command line while ssh as root? This makes me nervous since I do not fully understand how InMotion has configured CentOS.
Thanks!
