Recover access to your server

Locked out? Don't panic — because the VPS is yours on real virtualization, you have an out-of-band console and a clean reinstall as a last resort.

Use the panel console

Log in at vps.overnight.host and open your VPS's console. It's like sitting at the machine's screen — it works even if SSH/RDP is blocked, so you can fix a bad firewall rule or reset a password from there.

Common lock-outs

• Enabled a firewall without allowing SSH — open the console and run ufw allow 22/tcp (or ufw disable to undo).
• Lost your SSH key — from the console, log in and add a new key to ~/.ssh/authorized_keys.
• Forgot the password — reset it from the console, or reinstall if you have nothing to keep.
• Windows: forgot the password — use the console to reset, or contact support.

Last resort: reinstall

If you can't get in and there's nothing to save, reinstall from the panel for a clean machine with a fresh password.
