Linode VPS setup

Server Adminstration, Updates 3 Comments »

It took me about 2hrs to setup the server, from signin up to linode to transferring and bringing up this site.

Just thought i could list down the steps, so that it could be helpful for someone else and may be to myself later :-) .

I used articles by Victor Kane and Jeff Beeman as a guidance for setting up the server.  (Links to their articles can be found in the references list).

Signup & steps performed in Linode Manager

Signed up for Linode 360. Before signing up searched for coupon code in google but could only get some expired ones :-( .

Immediately after signup, I just logged into the Member’s area or Linode Manager. It asked me to select the geographical location of the server. They have 4 different options

  • Newark, NJ, USA
  • Atlanta, GA, USA
  • Dallas, TX, USA
  • Fremont, CA, USA

I selected Fremont, CA, USA, as its closer to India, among the above four.

The site was offline for the past few weeks, now its back online!!!

This site is now running from linode. Subscribed for their hosting plan Linode 360 yesterday (20April09).  I will be posting more details later, now little busy with projects :-)

Between, I switched to Freelancing early this month.
