Use of a VPS

[Starshine]

I recently got access to a VPS :

Space 10 Gig
Traffic 500 gig
100 MBit Connection
Virtuozzo Power Panel
Plesk 8.0 (30 domains)


It doesn't tell me if I can do reseller on it. ( Probably should ask ) - but if not, what can I do to possibly make a little $$$ using a VPS?

1and1 VPS lets see VPS you can sell hosting and sell VPS accounts if you have admin usually people buy VPS's to host like game servers and stuff.

VPS + GameServer = Fail.

Hosting websites is fine though, they're usually fast enough, and you can 1-click backup with Virtuozzo.

How would I go about doing the reseller? I don't see that I have access to a WHM ...
I am kinda new to VPS, so I am finding out what I can do with it.

VPS is WINDOWS it isn't linux that offers cpanel you make the plesk accounts if you have it.

LINUX-CPANEL
VPS-PLESK

I host my gameservers on VPS no problem except i exploded one.

Take a look - both Linux and Windows versions have Plesk.

And its a VPS account ... ( Virtual Private Server ) ...

So, not exactly sure what you were talking about ...

DEREK! LET ME EXPLAIN IT! ROFL.

VPS = Virtual Private Server. Both Windows and Linux hosts can be used, however, Linux is cheaper.

Plesk is like WHM, it automates stuff.. If you ever need me to explain it StarShine, ill guide you thru setting it up properly.

cPanel/WHM possibly can be added for a small fee extra ($10-$25 usually), so if you really want it, then you can have it, although there is nothing wrong wiht plesk.
