Hi,

Lets make a list wich things you can run on a linux box.

Please not: "I can run a cat on my linuxvps to make catcoin" or something like this.

• TOR Relay
  
• IRC Bouncer

Google has already compiled this data into a convenient (and fast) search engine.

• OwnCloud
• OpenVPN/IPsec L2TP VPN/PPTP VPN
• Iodine server for bypassing captive portals (at airports, etc.)
• Ghost Blog
• Personal Asterisk PBX VoIP Server

With a personal Asterisk PBX VoIP Server, you can make very cheap phone calls by integrating the PBX with your choice of a low-cost VoIP provider. For example, integrating with Google Voice will enable free calling to anywhere within the U.S. and Canada.

What's even better is that in Asterisk, extension-to-extension calls are FREE! No matter where in the world you are, as long as you have Internet access. And good sound quality too. You can even enable video calling through Asterisk. I currently use this method to call my parents in China from the U.S., and I don't pay anything.

For choosing a VoIP client, I recommend Zoiper (For: PC Mac Linux, Android, iPhone).

Google? What's that...?

Depends on the specs of the VPS right...?

Anything and everything?

Doesn't it depend on what you want to do with the server?

@pbalazs123 Great article. FTP servers are less used today though (password sent in plaintext), in favor of SFTP via SSH port.

@Brad ha you genius, it exist providers which give you 1GB HDD so impossible,

It should be burn traffic for a good reason not just random download files.... otherwise my vps would get nullrouted because of DDOS.

install ziproxy to proxy mobile browsing and decrease bandwith usage
install troublemaker and solve the troubles...

install torrent client and download p*rn, get busted and threated by copyright scammers. live the excitement... you dont p*rn? your friends will do, just give them torrent access..

You can use FTP with TLS/SSL explicitly.

By professionals, yes. By simple web developers, website administrators and end-users? No, FTP still wins on that round, regardless of plaintext authentication or not.
