Connecting to your vps service is straightforward.
Once a server is paid for, you must login to the panel to install and setup your service,
these usually ask for the name you want to give your server, the OS you wish to install and if you wish to use SSH keys over password authentication.
After you have completed this, you can continue to the next section.
Connecting to your VPS (Linux based)
- On your computer, open Terminal/Command Prompt.
- Type the following into the console:
ssh root@your-ip
Replace your-ip with your vps IP and change root to another user if you have setup a new user - Enter the password (copy paste), you can change this later.
- You are now logged in. If you have problems, you can contact our support team.
Connecting to your VPS (Windows via RDP)
Windows VPS generally are graphical based and does not utilise the OpenSSH server natively built into the operating system. In this case, we simply need to open a software that allow connections via RDP.
In Windows, you can search for (in the task bar) "Remote Desktop". Then input your IP, user and password specified in the email sent to your inbox (check spam folder).
- Find the email that contains the IP, User and password for your Windows VPS
- Input these values into the fields within the RDP software.
- Connect and your VPS is ready for use.
If you are using Linux to access your Windows VPS via RDP, you can use an opensource software such as Remmina: https://remmina.org/.
If you encounter any problems, you can contact our customer support for any technical or billing issues.
