Using SBCs can be a budget-friendly alternative to running small server applications in your home or business. Furthermore, the act of setting them up can get tedious if a single HDMI cable needs to be shared between several devices. Luckily enough, most, if not all, Linux distributions open port 22 for secure shell connections, also known as SSH.
