Getting Started: Dashboard Overview & First Access

Welcome to Tilaa! This guide will help you navigate the MyTilaa dashboard and log in to your server for the first time.

1. MyTilaa Dashboard Overview

When you log in at My Tilaa, you will see an overview of your active products and services.

2. Finding your Server Password

Before you can log in, you need your unique server password. This is generated automatically upon creation.

Note: If you change your password manually inside the server later, the dashboard will not update. This display only shows the initial password.
  1. In the dashboard menu, go to VPS.
  2. Click on the server you want to access.
  3. Locate the box Login details server.
Server login credentials location

Use the displayed Username (root/Administrator) and Password for the next steps.

3. Logging into your Server

Option A: Linux VPS (via SSH)

You can connect using the terminal on your computer. Replace ip.ip.ip.ip with your server's IP address.

Windows (PowerShell), macOS & Linux:

ssh root@ip.ip.ip.ip

(Windows users can also use PuTTY if preferred).

Option B: Windows VPS (via RDP)

Windows servers use Remote Desktop Protocol.

  • Windows: Search for "Remote Desktop Connection" in your start menu.
  • macOS: Download "Microsoft Remote Desktop" from the App Store.
  • Linux: Use a client like Remmina or rdesktop.

Option C: Emergency Access (Video Display)

If you cannot connect via the network (SSH/RDP), use the Video Display in the dashboard. This acts like a physical monitor attached to your server.

  1. Go to your VPS details page.
  2. Click on Video Display.
