Hello guys! In this tutorial I’m going through a Tutorial to create a VPN server.

There are several approaches to this, the first one is the easiest one:

How to create a VMESS / VLESS server:

1. Buy a cheap Ubuntu server:

• I personally use http://ovh.com
• Go for buying Virtual Private Server

• The first two cheap options would work
• Choose the Distribution Only image

• Go for Ubuntu
• Complete the buying process.
• After a short while (takes ~10 minutes) you will receive your credentials on your email.
• In a separate email you receive the following information: IP + username + password .

To connect to your server you need a SSH client:

• You can use any ssh client you want: I am using Termius on my Mac. For windows you can use putty I guess, and for Ubuntu you can use its own terminal.
• Now you have your server ready to be setup.

1. Setup necessary stuff on server:

• Make a SSH connection to your server

• Run the following commands: sudo apt-get update, sudo apt-get upgrade
• Run the following command to start v2ray script bash <(curl -s -L https://git.io/v2ray.sh)

• This will ask some questions in chinese language:
• The first one asks about the version of the v2ray you like:

• Then it asks for the protocol you would like to use, TCP works fine:

• Now you choose the port (remember your port choice)
• Then it asks if you want to install Ad Blocker, you can say NO
• Next it asks if you want to install Shadow Socks, you can say NO

• And finally it asks you to confirm the settings once more. You should press Enter to finish installation.

• Then it outputs once more the settings. Specifically you need the port:

1. Open up your firewall:

• Install ufw: apt install ufw
• Open up common ports: ufw allow http, ufw allow https, ufw allow ssh
• Open up VMESS port you chose before: ufw allow <the number above>

• Finally enable the firewall: ufw enable

1. Check if the configuration is happy ready:

• run v2ray url. This should show to you the configurartion link.

1. Run logging process on your server:

• Run the v2ray log command, and you will see the v2ray logs live. For the moment since nobody is connected to your server, there won’t be any logs.

1. Share the URL of step 4 with your friends so that they can use it to connect to your server.

2. Install v2ray client on your devices:

Copy the shared link:

IOS:

Install NapsternetV.

• Open the app, and on the Configs tab click on the + button on top right.

• Select the newly added link:

• And finally on the Home tab, press the connect(play) button.

Android:

Install V2rayNG.

• Open the app, click on the three dots button on top right.

• Select the second option, to import the copied config:

• And finally press the connect(play) button.

1. You should see the logs on the server ;)
