Which Linux distros are supported?
Ubuntu 20.04/22.04 LTS, Debian 11/12, AlmaLinux 8/9, Rocky Linux 8/9, Fedora Server, and Arch Linux. One-click deployment from control panel.
Do I really get full root access?
Yes. Unrestricted root/sudo privileges via SSH. Install custom kernels, configure iptables, modify system files — complete server control.
Can I install Docker and containers?
Absolutely. Docker CE pre-installed on Ubuntu/Debian images. Run Docker Compose, Kubernetes (K3s), or any containerized stack.
How do I connect via SSH?

ssh root@your-vps-ip. Password or SSH key authentication. Port 22 open by default. Change SSH port in sshd_config if needed.
Are all network ports open?
Yes. All TCP/UDP ports accessible. Configure iptables/ufw firewall rules as needed. Inbound/outbound traffic unrestricted (fair use).
Can I host databases and mail servers?
Yes. MySQL, PostgreSQL, MongoDB supported. Mail servers allowed (Postfix, Exim) but port 25 may be blocked (spam prevention). Use port 587 (submission).
Can I upgrade RAM or storage later?
Yes. Seamless upgrades to paid VPS plans with more CPU, RAM, NVMe storage. Your data and IP preserved during migration.
Is there a control panel or just CLI?
Both. Web-based panel for server management (reboot, reinstall OS, monitoring). Optional VestaCP/CyberPanel for website hosting. Full CLI/SSH access always available.
What about backups and snapshots?
Daily automated backups (7-day retention). Manual snapshots available from control panel. Paid plans get 30-day retention and instant snapshot restore.
Can I reinstall or change the Linux distro?
Yes. One-click OS reinstall from control panel. Switch between Ubuntu, Debian, Alma anytime. All data wiped on reinstall — backup first!
