Sonneto Posted February 2, 2021 Share Posted February 2, 2021 I have just purchased a dedicated server and need help in setting it up I have no idea what to do Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jarl Posted February 2, 2021 Share Posted February 2, 2021 Centos 6 is already eol and you should either reinstall centos 7 or another os. Most likely, there is a panel and you just have to click a button to install another os. Also, I don't think it's a good idea to let someone else setup your server. Who knows what they could be doing on your server... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
