Follow on from "sflaherty"'s excellent Digital Ocean guide

Ok, calling all small miners that would like an injection of h/s for absolutely nothing. I have been in discussions with Upcloud, a relatively new cloud compute company based in London and they have given me access to their servers for testing whilst the Java miner was being developed and released, and working alongside ProgrammerDan, a range of test conditions were setup.

While carrying out this research and testing, I found the interface that Upcloud uses very simple and easy to use. Whilst it doesn't offer the same options as some of the bigger companies like Amazon AWS and Google Cloud Platform, they certainly are trying and have been excellent with regards to support and advice.

With this in mind, I am providing a guide so that absolutely anyone can give themselves that added boost to their h/s for free.

First of all, it would be very much appreciated if you used the following link - https://www.upcloud.com/register/?promo=59R28E . This is a referral link that gives new sign-ups $25 free to try out their service. Yes, ARO does receive some credit also, but this is used to provide servers for software testing on Upcloud VM's. I do also pay out of my own money for server time. This link just helps absorb some of those costs.

Ok, once you have signed up you will be presented with your Dashboard page -

First we need to do the important stuff like setting up startup scripts and SSH keys.

I will walk you through how to create and use SSH keys in both Windows and Linux.

For Windows

Download and install the required version of PuTTY from these links - 32-bit - https://the.earth.li/~sgtatham/putty/latest/w32/putty-0.70-installer.msi
64-bit - https://the.earth.li/~sgtatham/putty/latest/w64/putty-64bit-0.70-installer.msi

Thanks for the tutorial @overlode

I have followed it but when I test if it works, it says "no sessions" (see screenshot below)

Do you know what's wrong?

Thanks

Try typing just "top" for me and let me know what it says (screenshot if poss)

It's possible also that the script is still installing, it takes about 2 minutes to fully install, sometimes longer

I have the same problem with freinos13

I put my server in Singapore at first, and thought maybe it is a problem. So I deleted it and put it in England. But it doesn't work. When i write "top" I get the same as freinos13

the script is with Java miner

also, at the start it shows "no VNC ready"

Using this script -

Quote

#! /bin/bash
set -x #echo on
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install curl git libssl-dev libcurl3 -y
wget https://bitbucket.org/cryptogone/ariocppminer/downloads/ariocppminer_v0.9.4_ubuntu16_server.tar.gz
tar -zxf ariocppminer_v0.9.4_ubuntu16_server.tar.gz
tmux new-session -d -s my_session './ariocppminer_avx2 -a -p http://aro.cool'

I have no problems at all
