You must log in as root (super user) and type those commands in a ssh shell.
To check if you are root type this command in a shell: “whoami”
If the answer is “root” , you are root.
If not, type “su -” , insert your password, and you’ll become root.

I’m relatively new at setting up a dedicated server. Found your article here and have what may be a silly question. When you say “simply write these commands as root” what do you mean?

I can get my way around SSH a bit, but don’t understand your “as root” tip. Thanks for any help.
