Hey guys, was wondering how long it would take to get set up if I was to set up my samp server on a vps? How complicated is it? Cause I know on hosting sites you can update your server according to samp version with the click of a button, but I fail to see how I would do that on a vps? Any recommended sites for VPS? And what would I need to do?
Contact me on skype and i can make something real easy and quick for you (own host)

Ubuntu (pretty nice, pretty easy):
apt-get update
apt-get upgrade
apt-get install libgtk2.0-0:i386 libpangox-1.0-0:i386 libpangoxft-1.0-0:i386 libidn11:i386 libglu1-mesa:i386
sudo adduser {user}
su {user} - switch user
wget {linux sa-mp server package download link}
tar -zxf {downloaded file}
rm {downloaded file} - remove package
cd samp03
chmod +x samp-npc samp03svr announce
nano - text editor
cd - navigate between directories
ls - list files in directory
nohup ./samp03svr & - start server and leave it online on exit
apt-get install nano - if you don't already have it preinstalled
-----------
OVH, NFOServers, DigitalOcean, etc.

If you don't know how to use a VPS, don't bother using them.
