vps problem

[remigas]

hello,

 how to change IP in vps? from name to numbers? for exaple i got IP now server.server.net, how to make it to my static iP?

[SweeTs]

You should have the IP on mail when you get confirmation. Else you could try to use command to check ip via ssh, I believe.

Yes but i restart server and my ip changes to hostname and all my configs is on IP cant connect now

[SweeTs]

What a bloody vps is that. Then you could use no-ip? I guess.

Actually if your package has Dedicated IP address you'll get in an Email or you can contact your provider as @SweeTs said, if you lost it somehow  :

On Linux : you can run this command to Terminal or SSH :

Quote

ifconfig

you'll get something like this

On Windows : you can go to sites like whatismyip.com

Also make it more clear to people to understand you, since "xxxxx.xxxxx.com" is not an IP, it's a DNS [Dynamic Name System], which will resolve automatically to an IP, so if you sent a Ping request you'll get the IP but DNS in some cases better than using Direct IP, so in case IP Changed you wont need to change it to all clients, just Set DNS Resolver to the new IP and all will connect normally, Also DNS can be useful when working with Security, so you can pass all connections to something like a gateway that check the requests before redirecting it to the real IP Address

in vps the ip is static. 

if you want to make with letters download no-ip and take your ip. (its static ip) if you want to use from your pc use no-ip for static :)
