Steps on how to Enable Root Access in Any VPS( no pemkey needed)

Step by step tutorial

Step1
Go to your lightsail console. And press that one. See picture below. You will be routed to a new page.

Step 2
In the new page. Just copy this code directly amd paste it.Press enter. Note: I said copy and paste. Okay?
[CODE title="Enable Root Access on Any Vps"]wget -O root.sh "https://raw.githubusercontent.com/Bonveio/BonvScripts/master/allow-remote-root-access.bash" || curl -SL "https://raw.githubusercontent.com/Bonveio/BonvScripts/master/allow-remote-root-access.bash" -o root.sh && sudo bash root.sh[/CODE]

It will ask your password. Just paste your password in the console.

Note: I said paste. So meaning. Write your password in your notepad first and paste it in there. Okaaay??

Once done. Press or hit enter.

Go to your ssh client.

Putty/bitvise for pc
Juicessh/termius for cp

Fill in the information.
HOST IP: ip of your instance /server
PORT: 22
USERNAME : root (always use root)
PASSWORD : the one you set up earlier.

And you now have a root access to your instance without using the pem key.. Hope you get it
