Remote Desktop Connection (RDC) to Linux Virtual Server

Our Linux virtual servers are not running X-windows which means that they do not have a GUI to view through a remote desktop connection. As an alternative you can use Webmin as a GUI management tool. This is a web browser based solution.


Connecting with Webmin to Linux Server

To connect to your Linux virtual server through Webmin you would need to open a web browser and enter the following URL. Please note that the URL needs to be edited to contain your server name.


EXAMPLE: https://xv01[xxxx].vps.myhosting.com:10000/


All Linux virtual servers are identified with the xv01 prefix and then the rest of the server name follows. Replace the "[xxxx]" with your server ID and the URL listed above will allow you to access Webmin.
