đSetting up your server
I just got my server, how do I connect and what should I do first?
First off, welcome to the Zesty Fam! We are glad to have you here with us. Second, don't be afraid to ask for help! We're always available to help clients. If you need a role in our discord, please open up a ticket.
Step 1 / Connecting to the server
Connect via RDP on Windows: https://docs-servers.zesty.group/connect/windows Connect via RDP on MacOS: https://docs-servers.zesty.group/connect/macos Connect via RDP on Royal TS: https://docs-servers.zesty.group/connect/royalts Connect via RDP on iOS: https://docs-servers.zesty.group/connect/ios Connect via RDP on Android: https://docs-servers.zesty.group/connect/android Connect via RDP on Linux: https://docs-servers.zesty.group/connect/linux
You may find your server login info via the Zesty dashboard.
Step 2 / Securing your server
We make this as seamless as possible using our Zesty Tool: https://zestytools.zesty.group/tools/zestytool Download the tool onto your server after you connect to it. Do NOT change the port on your local machine. The reason we ask people to change their RDP port is to secure the server as much as they can. Even if the password is super secure, we want you to feel as safe as you can possibly be.
You can also use the ZestyTool to enable brute force prevention on the server. Please remember to whitelist your home's IP address after you install this feature.
If you need any help changing your RDP port or setting up the brute force defense system, please open a ticket in our Discord server and ask for help. We can do this for you.
Optional, add 2FA to your server: https://docs-servers.zesty.group/security/how-to-setup-duo-2fa-on-rdp
Step 3 / Setup your software
Make sure you run windows updates on your server. This will help with security and compatibility. We have included some links below in case you need them.
If you need to install .NET 4.8, .NET 5.0 or .NET 6.0 for your software, follow the guide below.
The tool also includes software such as Notepad++, AYCD Toolbox, Google Drive, Kylin, etc.
