1
00:00:00,890 --> 00:00:04,130
With our server created we can now go ahead and set it up.

2
00:00:05,120 --> 00:00:11,920
If you're on a Mac system you'll need to open terminal terminal can be used to execute command lines

3
00:00:11,920 --> 00:00:13,600
to your server.

4
00:00:13,800 --> 00:00:20,480
If you're on a Windows system you can use poddy you're not limited to these tools.

5
00:00:20,510 --> 00:00:22,610
Feel free to use any command console.

6
00:00:22,640 --> 00:00:28,230
You feel more comfortable using if you are using terminal.

7
00:00:28,230 --> 00:00:31,800
The first thing you'll need to do is connect to your server to do so.

8
00:00:31,800 --> 00:00:34,340
Type in S-sh root

9
00:00:37,580 --> 00:00:43,460
and then you're going to need your IP address.

10
00:00:43,470 --> 00:00:45,630
So remember we're using the floating IP

11
00:00:49,440 --> 00:00:50,730
so I'm going to go ahead and copy that

12
00:00:57,510 --> 00:01:00,440
I'm going to paste it and press enter.

13
00:01:01,840 --> 00:01:04,570
You'll be prompted with a security message.

14
00:01:04,570 --> 00:01:06,870
Just typing yes and press enter.

15
00:01:08,700 --> 00:01:10,330
Now it's asking for your password.

16
00:01:12,590 --> 00:01:18,730
So as I explained earlier you would have received an e-mail from Digital Ocean that looks something

17
00:01:18,730 --> 00:01:20,550
like this.

18
00:01:20,800 --> 00:01:26,540
It just confirms that your droplet is set up and ready to go and then it gives you your access credentials.

19
00:01:27,780 --> 00:01:32,040
So in this case this is what your password is going to look like.

20
00:01:32,040 --> 00:01:35,130
Of course it will be something different but that's the format.

21
00:01:35,980 --> 00:01:37,420
And your user name is route.

22
00:01:37,420 --> 00:01:43,710
We are going to be using the root account to set all this up so we can copy the password

23
00:01:46,340 --> 00:01:53,620
and paste and then press enter.

24
00:01:53,650 --> 00:01:57,970
So right away it's going to ask you to change your existing password.

25
00:01:58,860 --> 00:02:00,640
So enter your current password.

26
00:02:00,870 --> 00:02:02,740
So I'm going to right click and hit paste again.

27
00:02:02,910 --> 00:02:08,540
Press enter and when you enter a new password that's secure but also easier to remember.

28
00:02:14,660 --> 00:02:21,800
Now you need to retype your new password just to confirm.

29
00:02:21,800 --> 00:02:29,720
So now you can see we're logged in as root user and you can also see the server name that we just signed.

30
00:02:29,750 --> 00:02:32,570
When we initially deployed the server in Digital Ocean.
