Correct phrase for connecting to a computer via ssh, telnet, etc.

When writing an instruction about connecting to a computer using ssh, telnet, etc., I'm not sure what spacing to use in this familiar spoken phrase:

  • "Log in to host.com"
  • "Log into host.com"
  • "Login to host.com"

Maybe this is entirely subjective or the realm of industry jargon, but I couldn't think of anywhere else to ask. Any insight?
