Need VPS to use as a RDP
Hi,
I need a cheap/budget VPS which i can use as a RDP. My basic usage will be to download and upload videos using Chrome etc. So any help will be greatly appreciated. I would like to pay via credit card as Paypal is not supported in my country. Location preferred US and yearly payment. Thanks in advance 
Best regards

If you need RDP we are talking about a windows VPS, this is bound to incur in license cost. What is your budget?
http://vds.click/index.php?countries%5B0%5D=3&payment_methods%5B0%5D=1&os%5B0%5D=6&windows=2 - VPS in US with windows license included in price and credit card payment method.
You can even do it with Ubuntu Desktop by setting up XRDP or VNC.
I think VNC will also work for me. So a linux VPS will work for me
Just be sure to secure it - VNC open to the internet is insecure as hell.
I'm using RealVNC enterprise as it provides encryption for my connection.
Really fast, support copy paste without any tweaks, etc.
EU then @arubacloud
1core CPU
1GB Ram
20 GB SSD
2TB BW
1 Dedicated ipv4
Vmware
1€/month OR 12€/Year

I hope that this will help
then HostUS is the choice @AlexanderM i have the same setup in LA buy that you will never have to worry about any thing
@simonindia
Thanks for that. Nice offer. What about the speed of their VPS and their support ? Is the bandwidth 2TB is for a year or monthly ?
they are quality provider and i have a VNC setup there
BW is 2TB/Monthly
this is my setup ▼
@simonindia
Great. I need the same thing as yours. I want to use it as VNC/XRDP. Basically my usage will be to download and upload some things by using e.g Chrome.
Can you pls also guide me on how you setup this ?

Have a great day
@simonindia
Thanks a lot for help. I really appreciate that
The only problem left is Hostus is not accepting credit card. They accept credit card via paypal but i can't pay with it as Paypal is not supported in my country.
https://revolut.com/ this can help but where are you from.
Actually i need it for a friend who lives in Pakistan. Paypal is not supported in Pakistan. So he want to pay via credit card (Payoneer) i think
tell your friend to do a Wire Transfer to revolut app after registration
or @AlexanderM can help you open a sales ticket
@simonindia
Thanks a lot for your help buddy
Did you get XFCE working on Debian 8? Or is that 7?
debian 7.8 64bit
I prefer MATE desktop over XFCE, just my opinion.
Here's my recipe: Pick a cheap VPS with at least 512 to 768 MB of RAM, and spin up an Ubuntu 15.10 instance. Then do the following:
sudo apt-get updatesudo apt-get install python-software-propertiessudo add-apt-repository ppa:x2go/stablesudo apt-get updatesudo apt-get install x2goserver x2goserver-xsessionNow if you want a fairly basic desktop with Firefox and a few other basic things, do:
sudo apt-get install --no-install-recommends ubuntu-mate-coreOr if you want the whole kit and kaboodle with LibreOffice and everything:
sudo apt-get install --no-install-recommends ubuntu-mate-core ubuntu-mate-desktopFinally, add a non-root user:
sudo adduser USERNAMENow on your desktop computer, download the X2GO client. The advantage of X2GO is that it is massively faster than VNC-based protocols, and it works fairly well even over low-bandwidth or high-latency connections. It's basically the RDP protocol of the open source world, some would even say it's better than RDP. The only confusing thing is in the client. After you enter the hostname and username and choose the desktop environment, it will open a different window with like a blank screen and a gray box with a session name off to the right. What isn't obvious to me is that you need to click somewhere in the gray box to actually launch the session and type in your password.
Bonus tip: After logging in, you can make the Mate desktop look more like a "normal" Windows by going to Preferences -> Appearance -> Mate Tweak and selecting the "Redmond" layout with the Advanced Menu button checked.
Add one or more two dollar...and you could get a 1gb openvz...also you could take a look at fireeasy KVM servers...I think they are in your budget...
And if you are a Linux noob... @virmach...he has preinstalled I so images with noVnc....panel...
@sb56637
+1...for that....
I used it...but I found VNC much better....
1 or 2 USD more is not a problem. Which provider are you talking about ?
Are xrdp or vnc clips working? Last time I use Linux desktop none working copy/paste clips on Windows
I don't have any personal experience but i heard from many people that it is good and also here in my thread a friend posted pictures of his personal VPS running VNC.
