Hi,

Do you have any knowledge with the nix platform? such as command lines?
If you do then its quite easy, after the initial setup there isnt much to do in putty unless somethign is needed to be enabled or upgraded.

There are many providers out there that provide managed VPS services

Cheers,

To days ago I found a good site which teach you how to use putty, also shows how to install a shoutcast server in your VPS

Putty is not difficult, means, unix commands are like "DOS" commands

Yes SSH is very easy, but It may help if you find someone who uses linux or search online about linux administration, because that is pretty much what it is. You are just logging into linux from a remote computer.

Using Putty is pretty straight forward.

You enter the IP address in the "IP address (or hostname)" field, and most of the time the port is 22 so just hit connect. Then you put your user and password in -- Note that the password will not be shown at all due to security reasons.

You could get a system adminstration book, it would really help ya out alot
One book I really recommend is

Re: How to use putty?

Yes I agree, $30 is pretty much for a book
We had the book in our university bookstore though for about $12, it was a special price for students..
