VPS Hosting: Getting Setup

So, you want to purchase a VPS with Linexium, but you don't know how. Well now you do! Follow the following instructions and you'll be up in running within an hour.

 

Ordering the VPS

   


  • Proceed to the outlined red box. This will take you to our services page. 
    • Now from here, you can view and/or purchase the following services,
      • Web Hosting
      • VPS Hosting
      • VPN Services
      • Additional Addons

 

     

 


  • Choose the plan that you like. You will then be redirected to a page like this.

   

 

  • Fill out the fields
    • "Hostname" - This is the domain that your machine will link onto. (Applicable for Linux Installs)
      • This is not needed for installs of Windows Server.
    • "Root Password" - This acts as your "master" password for all future installs. Set it to something you'll remember!
    • "NS1 & 2 Prefix" - This is how you configure your nameservers if installing cPanel. The prefix is what comes before the domain, for example, "ns1.linexium.com".
    • "Operating System" - This is the OS that will be installed onto the VPS. If there is a specific version, this is where to pick it.

Setting Up the VPS

After the order has been processed and your VPS installed, you can find important important in your email. (Check your junk folder!) You can control and access you VPS at the enduser panel, which can be found at https://vhost01.linexium.com:4083. Make sure to login with your WHMCS (Client Portal) information. You'll be brought to the home page.
