Select your VPS service. Follow the link in Resources below to browse hosting packages and prices. Select a service with a plan that suits your individual needs.
Click on the 'Sign Up' link on your chosen service's website. Fill out the forms and payment options as prompted. When you are done, wait for the service to process your application. When the service has created your account and virtual private server, it will send you an email with your login credentials.
Navigate to your chosen service's website, click 'My Account' and log in to your account with your user name and password. The first time you log in, the service will ask you to make some choices to configure your server. You will be prompted to make these selections after you log in.
Select your kernel. Most VPS services will offer a variety of Linux kernels to install on your server. If you know which kernel you want to run, select it. If you are unsure, choosing the Ubuntu kernel is a safe choice.
Select the size of your first partition. When you signed up for the VPS service, you chose a plan with a certain amount of disk space. You can choose to dedicate all of this space to a single partition. If you want to host multiple websites from your VPS, you can also choose to make a smaller first partition and then create more partitions from the remaining space.
Write down the IP address of each of your VPS partitions. These will be displayed on your account page. If you created only one partition, then you will have only one IP address.
Open a program on your computer capable of running the Secure Shell (SSH). If you are on Linux or Mac OS X, then this will be your Terminal application. If you are on Windows, download PuTTY (see Resources).
Type 'ssh root@your-partition's-ip-address' into your SSH-capable application, and press 'Enter' to access your VPS. Type in your account's password when prompted. After this, you will be logged in to your VPS, ready to install your server software and configure it to your needs.

How to Connect to WiFi at Starbucks for FreeIn Feburary 2016 03,
In Feburary 2016 03,
As of publication, Starbucks is in the process of switching from AT&T to Google Wi-Fi services. Locations still using AT&T offer Wi-Fi with the SSID 'attwifi,' while Google locations use the SSID 'Google Starbucks.' Even if it has 'Starbucks' in the name, don't connect to any other networks you find in the area -- they aren't legitimate Starbucks connections.
Windows Public Wi-Fi Settings
Unsecured public Wi-Fi like that offered by Starbucks requires some careful settings within Windows to protect your system. When setting up the connection, choose the
Public network option and select the
Turn off network discovery and
Turn off file and printer sharing radio buttons to switch off all file and device-sharing options in order to limit access to your computer's files on this network.
Virtual Private Networks
Setting up a virtual private network is a good way to prevent your connection from eavesdropping. VPNs create encrypted connections between two points on a network, namely your computer and a website. Without the VPN's decryption key, it's extremely difficult for hackers to decode any data they intercept. SecurityKISS, CyberGhost VPN and VPNBook are all free VPN services that offer a secure, encrypted connection between your computer and online resources like websites and chat clients. These services are generally very similar, differing primarily in how they encrypt the connections and how much data can be transmitted over the connection per day.
Secure Website Connections
Secure websites are also very useful for preventing information theft while on Starbucks Wi-Fi. You can tell websites are secure by checking the URL for a 'HTTPS' prefix, as well as a little lock icon in the address bar. Chrome, Firefox and Opera also have extensions like HTTPS Everywhere, SSL Enforcer and ForceHTTPS, which automatically enable security features like HTTPS or Secure Socket Layer (SSL) encryption or block sites without these features. While relying completely on these extensions and HTTPS-enabled websites won't guarantee safety using a public connection, they can be useful tools when used with other safety measures.
Sensitive Information
Generally, you should never use public Wi-Fi to look at sensitive information like bank accounts or credit cards. Even taking all the precautions you can, there is still a chance of data interception and identity theft. Access sensitive information only on trusted, secured networks.
Other Safety Tips
Never access public Wi-Fi connections without up-to-date anti-virus and anti-malware software, and, whenever possible use two-factor authentication. Whenever you're not using the connection, switch your computer to airplane mode or switch off Wi-Fi to prevent unauthorized access via the network. Also, delete the connection from your connection list when you're done, unless you use the Wi-Fi at that particular Starbucks frequently.
