Les setup

bboranbboran Member

I have just ordered a minimal vps package from Lowendspirit to setup a vpn server But its a little bit different from other vps companies. Anyone can guide me to the first steps to access this vps? I read some sort of guide but i still cant connect to my vps. I tried to connect to ssh via solusvm serial console but it gives javascript error. I tried to connect via putty and it goes well but now i try to edit my ssh config file but sshd_config file is empty. What i am doing wrong. Somebody please guide me =)

    try

    sudo /etc/init.d/ssh stop

    sudo /etc/init.d/ssh start

    or

    apt-get install ssh

    then check if its empty

    Look at LES forums.

    Yes, you should get mail with "Your New VPS Server Details (READ IN FULL)" subject containing your IP and ports.

  • so the "Main IP" in the mail is my main ip and the port that is written in my serial console page is the port that i need to use, right?

    "Main IP" is not external publicly reachable IP. To log into your VPS use external NAT IP + your dedicated ports. You should really read "Your New VPS Server Detail" carefully. It's everything explained there.

    There is a quick guide on http://forum.lowendspirit.com and all information that you need is in the email thst you got.

    You can think of LES like a home connection, you get one IP(v4) that is shared amongst all connected devices 'on the inside'.
