How to Manage Linux Virtual Server

Every VPS has so called 1Gb Panel preinstalled. This Control Panel allows you to do all basic tasks you may need to run web server. You can enter 1Gb Panel using the following address:

• http://[your VPS IP]:1234

It is advised to use robots.neuprime.com SMTP server to relay your mail from your VPS. PHP is configured for this already. You can also create mailboxes from Control Panel, they run on common hosting mail system, so you have no need to run mail server yourself.
Please contact support if you want TCP port 25 opened with RDNS to relay yourself.

You can use standard SSH access to work with your system.

• Place your Website files at your VPS.

How to Manage Your VPS Files

There are two common ways for this:

• If you prefer to work as root: SCP / SFTP is safe and good working protocol to manage files remotely, based on SSH connection and encryption. Search web for WinSCP for example (ported to every popular system).
• To manage regular Websites: you can use FTP to access Website files after you create user in 1Gb Panel. You can also use SCP / SFTP to manage Website files as noted in previous chapter.
• 1Gb Panel has web file manager build-in, you can work with files and archives using this feature. For example, you can upload archived Website into your folder and expand this archive using web file manager.
