setup a lacewing server

Can someone help me setup a lacewing server on a vps?

I dont know if i can just pick any vps and just put my built exe there?

Or is there some stuff i need to know?

You will definitely need to know if the VPS is running Linux or Windows, as well as how to tell the VPS to run your program as a dedicated server.

I took Linux with centos 6 64, Windows servers seem too expensive. But i can change the OS if need be.

Anyways is it possible to run a fusion built exe on such a server or will i need to use the plycaweing?

What i could really use are some simple steps to follow on installing the things?

EXE files are windows only. Since you chose a Linux server, you will not be able to use anything from Fusion on the server. You'll have to use liblacewing 0.2.6 and code the server in C++. There are multiple threads in this forum already where I've helped people do that ;)

It will be worthwhile to learn how to ssh into your server, or remote desktop if your server package supports it.

If you are saying that if i get a vps with windows i could just make the server in fusion and put the exe up there? Hassle free?

If that is so i might consider just getting a windows vps despite the price, I am pretty sure I could find some bargain.

Yes, if you got a Windows server you could run just about any executable you build in Fusion.

Okay, I have been looking a while at windows vps.
Could you recommend the windows OS to choose? Which one and whetever 32 or 64 bit.

I'm not an expert here, but I believe Windows 7 will probably have the best and longest support, I would assume. Fusion can only create 32-bit executables, so there's no reason to use 64-bit Windows.

There is no windows 7 for vps, there is:

Windows 2003
Windows 2008
Windows 2008 R2
Windows 2012

And all of those can be either 32 or 64 bit.

I guess ill just pick one at random, there is not much on google when it comes to this...

Ah, I forgot that there are dedicated Windows Server operating systems. As I said, I am no expert in this area - we've quickly exited my area of knowledge. I hope you can sort things out.
