In the meantime, i've found that the tutorial here works just fine:

If you follow it, you end up with a fully functional electrum server  Grin
I have a vps, what i need? 1gb ram? x gb? transfer size?

I'm not an expert on this... I followed the complete how-to on a clean debian box (8 XEON cores, 16Gb RAM). When i look at my server, it's load is around 0.2, and about 2,5 Gb memory was used... So i guess you can run an electrum server on a VPS, given that you have some swap space. Altough, during the loading fase where you install bitcoind and load the blockchain, a sufficient amount of processing power and ram might speed things up Wink
Thanks!
Im going to try it this weekend Wink
