Connect SFTP and RCON

Connect SFTP for files and RCON for commands.

Open my servers ↗
Before you start
  • A PimpMyRust account and a server you are authorized to manage.
  • Get the required credentials from your host. Verify SFTP, RCON and the companion separately.

Follow the steps

  1. In Hub → Servers, add a server and give it a recognizable name.
  2. Enter your host’s address, SFTP port and account. Test SFTP, check the Rust folder and compare any requested fingerprint with your host’s fingerprint.
  3. For players and commands, enter WebRCON, its port and password, then test that connection.
  4. Select the server in the Hub and check its name. This chooses the tools’ target; it does not replace an open configuration. To read its settings, use Import → From my server.
Empty form with SFTP selected and RCON in a separate tab.
