Hi Guys,
I have ordered a ded server from seedhost.eu and i got my server details...just the server ip,username and pswd.
what next? I am a total noob..Can somebody help?
i thought it would come with some default config like utorrent/ftp/vnc...but don't know if these are installed or not..
any help greatly appreciated
is it Windows Server or Ubuntu Server
gust have a look on this thread
http://filesharingtalk.com/vb3/f-gui...nubuntu-281331
It is based on Debian(Lenny)..i remembered that i have order my server with CentOS...but came with Debain..Is it ok or not? any way i have asked for change of os...
i think it will be better if u change it to Ubuntu Server.CentOS is very difficult
I am little confused.Which one is better and simple. CentOS or Ubuntu or Debain.Plz let me know coz i need to modify my support ticket before they act on it.
Strange thing is that i am not able to connect to the server using putty from office...dont know if somebody is working on it.
I asked dancefor(admin of seedhost.eu) yesterday..and he said it will come with basic settings...i don't know if it actually has been configured. I hve tried connecting through vnc from home..could not connect..
Ubuntu is the easiest.
ok..I have opened a support ticket,they have not responded to it..so i will close it and raise a new ticket but want to know...how difficult/easy is to setup seedbox and other apps like wine/winrar/filezilla/apache/php/mysql on the server using Ubuntu..
P.S: Should i ask for Ubuntu Desktop or Ubuntu Server version
Ubuntu Desktop IS the best. u will not have any problem
I signed up for my first seedbox with xirvik, i have no idea what is running underneath, i just logged in with my username/password, and can access the ftp and bit torrent client easy. I thought this was how all seedboxes were?
Seedbox != dedicated server.Quote:

Seeboxes run on dedicated servers. When you buy one, the company/individual you bought it off has already installed at least a torrent client and a ftp daemon on it.
thanks for the clarification
