Asking about options when apply for hosting-ie

Hi,
After asking and reading some suggests in here, I decided to choose VPS Raptor 3 from hosting-ie. When I want to apply for one there's another option to choose but I don't know what's for, could somebody explain to me ?

- Management Service : Level 1, Level 2, Level 3, Level 4, Level 5, Level 6
- cPanel/WHM
- PLESK 8
- Power Pack for PLESK
- App Pack for PLESK
- OS, which is the best ? I plan to choose FEDORE, is it ok ?

To use this as a seedbox, which option should I choose ? How do I remote control this server from my computer ? How do I install torrent client after apply this package ?


Thanks a lot

You dont need any of them if you are only going to use it for downloading and seeding. As for the OS if you are new to fedore or any other linux OS. I would suggest windows 2003. Just download your preferd bittorrent client e.g utorrent and start downloading/seeding

To connect to the server all you do is open remote desktop on your computer and type in the user details they sent you in a email

Which type of protocol did the remote management use ? Is it VNC ? Is the program only available in Windows ? Because I'm using Mac


thanks

Go with Windows if you have zero Linux experience.

If you are using a Mac you should already be fairly familiar with the command line structure of a Linux box if you have used shell commands within your OSX machine. You can use chicken for your VNC connection for Mac, it depends on your level of experience ? If you are unsure about using the command line or if the guides for configuring a Linux seedbox seem to complicated, a Windows 2003 based server maybe the answer for you ?
