Since the Linode VPS host launched the 10-dollar plan, more and more users have begun to use this machine.

First, Linode backend panel and opening a new VPS

General purchasing agents basically use sub-accounts, which makes renewal and management more convenient (you can also lock the user and ask us to renew on your behalf in the future). If you really need an independent account, you need to open the machine yourself. Take a look at the picture below.

If there is no VPS machine in our account, after clicking on the first "Linodes" menu, you will see the picture above, and then select the plan and computer room to activate the machine. If the account we open is a sub-account, Snail will set permissions for the user, and then the user will see an interface like this when logging in to the account, and the machine has been opened.

This means that our VPS has been opened, but we need to install the system and start the power after logging in. Then enter the \\"Dashboard\\" panel button to enter the panel management of the current VPS.

Second, Linode installs the system and starts the power supply

Many novice friends think that after Snail purchases the machine for them, they can use it after seeing the machine in Figure 2 above. In fact, it is wrong. The machine is turned on, but it has not been unpacked by default. We need to enter\\" Dashboard\\" panel button, then install the system and start.

A – Install the system

Select system installation in \\"REBUILD\\" and set the ROOT password.

B – Start power/system

After we install the system, we wait until it reaches 100%, and then it needs to be started before it can be used. Many users think that it will start automatically after installing the system, but this is actually wrong.

After the startup is 100%, we can log in to the VPS via SSH. PS: When reinstalling the system in the future, it is best to shut down the computer first, turn off the POWER on the right side, and then reinstall the system.

Third, modify the Linode account password and email address

If our account needs to be given to other users or we also want to change the password and email address, we can also modify it. In the \\"my profile\\" in the upper right corner of the panel, enter our original password to enter, and then see Change the email address and password as shown below.

The above is to modify the email address, and the following is to modify the password.

To summarize, in this article, Snail basically introduces the three aspects that novice Linode users need to use. Sometimes, for novices, it almost causes a headache. In fact, it is that simple after learning it. That's all.
