About
What is a Helipod aaPanel VPS?
aaPanel is a free hosting control panel for Linux servers. From your browser you can create websites, MySQL databases, FTP accounts, SSL certificates and cron jobs, and manage files. On a Helipod aaPanel VPS, the panel is already installed on Debian 12.
Normally you rent an empty VPS, log in over SSH, run the aaPanel install script and open the panel port in the firewall. Here that is done: panel port 7800 is opened automatically for new VPS, and the Application tab in the dashboard shows the command to see your login address.
The panel makes things easier, root stays with you. You can still SSH in, install other software and configure the server by hand whenever you need to.
