Creating an OVHcloud account

100 XP

⏱️ 3 minutes | 🎚️ Beginner | 🗣️ English

📝 Key takeaways:

  • Access the server via KVM — Found by clicking the three dots button next to the server name. KVM lets you control your server directly from the web browser, just like having a physical monitor and keyboard connected to it.
  • Set an administrator password on first connection — This password will be used every time you log in, so choose something memorable.
  • Use "Send Control Alt Delete" to sign in — Since we're in a web browser, use the browser button instead of the physical keyboard shortcut.
  • Dismiss any pop-ups on first sign-in — Windows may automatically open a few windows, including a eula.txt file. These are normal and can simply be closed out.
