If your domain has the status ”locked” it couldn’t get transferred from one registrar to another. After some time this status is set automatically to avoid abusive transfers.
Please notify our support if you want to change the status to ”active”. That’s required if you want to transfer a domain – we will handle this for you then. Please also notice that the status can change automatically back to ”locked” after a few days.
Don’t worry, we won’t prevent you from transferring your domain – we will answer your ticket as soon as we can.
A vServer without FTP access? Unthinkable! If you want full control over your server, accessing it via FTP or SFTP is essential. Here you will learn step by step how to connect with FileZilla or WinSCP quickly and easily.
Prerequisites
By default, there is no FTP server installed on your vServer. To use FTP/SFTP, you first need to configure the server via SSH.
If you want a secure connection, we recommend using SFTPâit works directly with your SSH access and is encrypted by default.
Connecting with FileZilla via SFTP
Open FileZilla â Launch FileZilla and enter the server address (your server’s IP address) in the “Host” box in the Quickconnect bar.
Enter Username â The default is “root” unless you have set up a different user.
Enter Password â Use your Root password which you received via email. If you have changed it, use your new password.
Set Port Number â For SFTP, this is always Port 22.
Connect â Click “Quickconnect” or hit Enter.
Confirm Warning â If a warning about an unknown host key appears, click “OK”.
You can now upload, download, and manage files!
Connecting with WinSCP via SFTP
If you prefer using WinSCP, follow these steps:
Start WinSCP â Open the program.
Add New Server:
Protocol: Select SFTP.
Server Address: Enter your server’s IP address.
Username: Usually “root”.
Password: Enter your Root password.
Set Port â Default is Port 22 for SFTP.
Save and Connect â Save the session and click “Login”.
Confirm Security Warning â If you receive a host key warning, confirm it with “Yes”.
You are now connected to your vServer and can manage files!

Installing an FTP Server via SSH
If you need a traditional FTP server, you can install it like this:
Connect via SSH â Connect to your vServer using SSH.
Update Package Lists â Run the following command: apt-get update
Install FTP Server â Use the command: apt-get install proftpd
Adjust Configuration â After installation, customize the FTP server to your preference.
Important Note:FTP is unencrypted! Always use SFTP whenever possible.
Why SFTP?
SFTP (SSH File Transfer Protocol) is the secure alternative to FTP. ✔ Encrypted Transmission â Your data cannot be intercepted. ✔ No Extra FTP Server Needed â SFTP works over existing SSH access. ✔ Easy Setup â No additional software required.
Even Easier: The VionityCP Web Interface
If you wish to manage your vServer more efficiently, check out our VionityCP web interface. It allows you to manage your server directly through the browserâincluding FTP/SFTP access!
Now you know how to quickly and securely connect to your vServer. If you have any questions, feel free to contact support! 🚀
If you want to connect a domain to your Five-M (CFX) server you just have to follow the upcoming steps:
Login into the webinterface and click on your domain in the navigation menu to the left.
Choose ”DNS-Settings” (dt. = DNS-Einstellungen).
Click on the Button ”+ New SRV entry” (dt. = + Neuer SRV Eintrag).
Select the service looking like “five m”
Now fill in the following fields:
Subdomain: Here you can either keep this field empty or you can note the subdomain you want to use.
IP: Indicate the address (Domain or IP) of the Five-M server. It’s important that you don’t fill in the port.
Destination-port: Enter the server port. Standard 30120
Save your settings.
Domain at another domain provider
If the domain is registered somewhere else you may have to connect the domain and your game server manually. We can’t give any clearer advice because we don’t know your provider.
Create an A-Record titled “server” (or something familiar) – assign the IP-address of your server on which the GTA Multiplayer mod is running as the content.
We need to create a new SRV entry with the following properties:
Name: _cfx._udp
Priority: 10
Weight: 10
Port: Now you need the game server port – 30120 by default
Content/Target: fivem.mydomain.com (here you need the Subdomain as shown in step one.)
Complete SRV entry:
Name: _cfx._udp.mydomain.com
Content: 10 10 30120 server.mydomain.com
Please notice that it can take about 24 hours until anyone can connect using the domain.
If Windows is installed on your server, multiple users can work with it at the same time. But for that it’s needed to create a new user and activate the Remote-Desktop service (RDP).
Quick guide
Create user
Set password
unlock this user for RDP
login via RDP
In this article we explain step by step how a new user can use the windows server via remote.
Create a new user
Open the start menu and click on ”settings” – in the following window you click on ”accounts”. Click on ”other users” – there you can find a big ”add” button.
The user management opens. Do a right-click on ”user” and choose ”new user”.
Now you have to fill in the form. It’s important that username and password are set. Other fields can get filled in at will.
Create user (Windows server 2016)
Activate remote desktop for the new user
The new user is registered in the system – so you can now activate the remote desktop.
Do a right click on the windows logo in the bottom left corner of your taskbar. Then click the entry ”system”. In the opening dialogue you choose ”Remotesettings”.
Now we are clicking the ”select users” field. A list of users will appear – the admin is set as unlocked to RDP by default. If we click the ”add” button – a search dialogue opens. In the big field you have to search for the newly created user and click on ”ok”.
Ultimately you have to confirm the upcoming dialogue-fields.
Login via remote desktop
The login is a little tricky because you have to enter the format ”computername/username”. Otherwise the user can’t get identified and the password will be shown as incorrect. You can find the computer name in the ”system” window that is still open. To make it easier note the characters.
Login with the computer- and username
In our case the users full name would be 03887-23782\Mike. If the password you enter is correct – the new user is logged in.
You can order multiple IP addresses for each Dedicated Server through our support. You can order a maximum of 6 individual IPs. Various subnets are also available.

Please note that we need to know the purpose for ordering additional IP addresses. If we consider the purpose to be not meaningful, we may reject the order. This could be the case, for example, if the same result can be achieved through intelligent port usage. Therefore, please include your purpose directly in your support ticket.
A dedicated server can’t be managed as easy as a virtual server. A virtual server is able to start quickly because it is part of a physical system.
Dedicated servers have to support special motherboard-commands so they can get remotely started. Not every motherboard of our dedicated servers are supporting this. That’s why you shouldn’t shut down a dedicated server at all. We may have to send a technician to start the server manually. This can take some time.
If you have shut down your server by accident – feel free to contact our support.
With the rescue system proxmox can also get installed. Please make sure, that your processor is able to command virtualization. You can get further information from our support.
Yes, thats possible! The feature is available for dedicated servers. But please notice that our gameserver manager is only functional for debian and ubuntu.
Usually your dedicated server will be available in less than 15 minutes. We automated the provisioning but if there went anything wrong at the payment or automated deployment it could take a little longer.
As soon as the server is available, the IP-address can be seen in the webinterface. Then you can equip your server with an operating system.
Feel free to contact our support if the deployment takes longer – so we can give you information about the order status.
