I am kinda interested to see if anyone out there would like to discuss working with VPS. I just got my first VPS account up, thank-you Yash. I would be thrilled if anyone can offer any suggestions for me on running my VPS. Specifically I am looking at using it to run bugzilla. A bug reporting service. I am not too experienced with bash, but learning. My first hurdle… I need to get the tar to this VPS. I don’t know anyway to do this from bash, so next I wonder… Do I have to setup an FTP server on this VPS? If anyone would like to open conversation, it’d be cool. 
UPDATE:
I uploaded the file to an existing FTP account on win6. Using the ftp command from BASH I was able to get the file.
The FTP command works, and overall wget is your friend 
You can browse for a piece of software on your own PC, once you get to the download link, just copy the URL, and wget . It supports HTTP and FTP.
Thank-you subspace. I got the file over there. Got a question about gzip. The file I am working with is bugzilla-2.16.5.tar.gz I am trying “gzip -d bugzilla-2.16.5.tar.gz” When I do this I get the following message.
gzip: bugzilla-2.16.5.tar.gz: invalid compressed data–crc error
then the same thing with the difference --length error
Now in windows I can use winrar and extract everything in this file. Do you know anyway to create a tarball in windows?
Try “tar -zxvf file.tar.gz” instead, it should work. Not sure why you’re getting a CRC error tho.
I’ve never bothered making tarballs on Windows, there are .zip compatible Linux utils as well
Hey subspace… Any suggestions on an FTP server to setup on the VPS? I was thinking proftpd
