After you have placed your order, you will receive an email containing the remote desktop login credentials for your VPS. This guide will show you how to use these credentials to access your trading VPS from your Ubuntu Linux desktop or laptop.

Ubuntu comes with Remmina, a powerful remote desktop client that provides excellent RDP (Remote Desktop Protocol) support. If Remmina isn’t installed on your system, we’ll show you how to install it.
