NaQ's Complete Setup Guide for Linux Seedboxes (Fedora Core/CentOS/Debian/Ubuntu)

**reeve** · 09-20-2008, 05:34 PM

Followed this guide a second time for another leaseweb express server. Things went pretty well. I chose tightvncserver, last time vncsever wouldn't work and I went with vnc4server which works fine.
Installing Flash support didn't work. Goggle quickly gave me a method which was fine.

Yea, like the above user I have a leaseweb box and the VNC server in the tutorial wont work so I'm just wondering how I can set up a different one (this is my first time to do this)

Anyone experiencing connections problems with other OVH local peers when seeding from an OVH server?
Using latest wine + utorrent 1.8, it seems to drop connections from other ovh boxes...

Replacing vncserver with tightvncserver is real easy. Wherever you see "vncserver" in the guide, replace it with "tightvncserver".

So you will need to

Code:

apt-get install tightvncserver

set up the desktop the same as in the guide.

And to start it

Code:

tightvncserver: 1

One your desktop it doesn't matter whether you use realvncviewer or tightvncviewer.

Naq amazing job man, god bless you

I didnt have any trouble cause i am familiar with networking and linux.

For all those who complains not seeing firefox in the menu, me too. Just type firefox in an xterm window and it will run.

thanks again

I have a kimsufi with debian. Can someone tell me what I do wrong?

I'm having this same exact issue. Google hasn't provided any good instructions on how to install openssl.. Can anyone help?

I'm using puTTy and logged in as root.
