How is it possible the VPS owner break into main node?


The VE has a chrooted, limited view of the filesystem. So the VE cannot "break in" to the HN filesystem.

However, the VE can use ssh to login to the HN, just like any other networked host. Maybe you have poor security on your HN. But how can we know what happened, when you don't provide detailed, factual information?
