Connections & credentials

Multiple servers — Save server profiles, organize them into groups, search servers and notes, and switch between workspace tabs.
Flexible SSH sign-in — Connect with a password or private key, import existing SSH configurations, and reach servers through a bastion host.
Encrypted credential vault — Protect saved passwords, key passphrases, and sudo credentials with a local master password.
Host identity checks — Review host fingerprints before trusting a new server, and get a warning when a known server's identity changes.
No remote agent — Manage servers over SSH without installing a Serverbox agent on them.

Tabbed terminals — Keep interactive SSH terminals open as you move between server views, with resizing, copy and paste, and reconnect support.
Saved commands — Name and reuse commands for one server or across all server profiles, then review their output in the app.
Server notes — Keep local notes with each server profile.
SSH tunnels — Save, start, and stop local or remote port forwards and SOCKS5 proxies, and see their current status.

Server overview — Check CPU, memory, disks, network interfaces, uptime, and load.
Process management — Inspect running processes and stop a process when needed.
System services — Inspect supported services, start, stop, restart, reload, enable, or disable them, and review recent service logs.
Log viewer — Read system and file logs, adjust the time range and line count, search entries, and follow live output.
Network activity — Inspect listening ports and active connections to see which services are using the network.
Disk explorer — Find large files and directories, inspect disk and inode usage, and review container storage and log-directory usage.

File browser — Browse remote folders, show hidden files, search loaded entries, and inspect sizes, permissions, and ownership.
Remote editing — Open and edit text files directly, create folders, and delete files.
Uploads and downloads — Transfer files or entire folders, including drag-and-drop uploads, with progress and cancellation.
Access controls — Change file permissions and ownership from the browser.

Docker and Podman — Browse containers and inspect their configuration, runtime statistics, and logs.
Container lifecycle — Create, start, stop, restart, pause, resume, and remove containers, or open an interactive shell inside one.
Images and storage — Pull and manage images, and inspect or manage container volumes and networks.
Compose projects — Discover Compose projects, manage their services, and scale services from the app.

Scheduled jobs — Create, edit, enable, disable, and remove user crontab jobs.
APT packages — Browse packages, inspect package details, and run supported package-management actions on APT-based servers.
Users and groups — Manage Linux accounts and groups, change group memberships, and reset user passwords.
Authorized SSH keys — Review key fingerprints and add or remove authorized public keys.
Firewall rules — Review and change UFW or firewalld rules, including ports, protocols, and source restrictions where supported.
Security overview — Check available software and security updates, kernel information, and whether a reboot is required.
Maintenance actions — Update package indexes, restart SSH or Docker, install common tools, clear page cache, or schedule a reboot or shutdown, with confirmations for disruptive actions.

Adjustable interface — Resize the interface from 80% to 200% to suit your display.
Capability awareness — The app detects available server tools and explains when an administration feature is unavailable.

Administration features depend on the Linux distribution, installed tools, and your account permissions. Terminal and file browsing require SSH access.
