Windows On A Kimsufi Server & More

Install Windows 10 on Kimsufi, SoYouStart, OVH and Online.net

by

Recently Microsoft has released the Update for Windows 10 in October 2018, so I made a new template for Kimsufi, SoYouStart, OVH and Online.net servers. Install instructions are the same as my other Windows templates.

First of all disable monitoring, once disabled, boot into rescue mode (netboot) from the Kimsufi control panel. Wait a few minutes and an email will show up in your inbox with the details (username and password) of the rescue system.

Login at the rescue system using PuTTy (or your favorite SSH client) and follow the following steps.

Once fully downloaded and unzipped to the disk go back to the Kimsufi control panel and change Netboot to Hard Disk. Once done, reboot the server and wait till it responds to ping. After that you can login using RDP (Remote Desktop)

Windows 10 October 2018 Update:

wget -O- 'https://mirror.joodle.nl/window10-2018-12-x64.gz' | gunzip | dd of=/dev/sda

Remote Desktop Username/Password:

Username: User
Password: Abc123

Please change the password as soon as you login.

Install drivers from c:\drivers then delete the drivers folder.

Expand the c:\ drive by opening  “Computer Management”, Disk Management console. Don’t forget to initialize other hard drives.

Install windows server 2016 on kimsufi, ovh or soyoustart

Are you looking to install Windows Server 2016 on your server, and are you renting your server at OVH? That’s awesome! You can install Windows on your server free of charge besides license costs, but that is up to you, we only provide the template.

Please do note: this template might work on other servers at other providers as well (Online.net and Hetzner for example).

This is a 180 days Evaluation template, but you can still use your own license (if you have one).

Follow the steps to install Windows on your server just one simple command.

1. Boot your server in rescue mode.
2. Login with the SSH credentials which should have been sent to your email address (if on OVH).
3. Copy the command in the box below and paste it in the terminal, press enter and wait till it’s fully downloaded and unzipped.

wget -O- 'https://mirror.joodle.nl/WindowsServer2016Evaluation-Template.gz' | gunzip | dd of=/dev/sda

Once fully downloaded and unzipped set your server to boot from the HDD again and wait till the Remote Desktop is accessible.

You can login using these credentials:

Username: Administrator
Password: Password147

Use My New Ad Blocking DNS For Free

Use my new Free Ad-Blocking DNS service. Just change your DNS to this IP: 94.177.230.107 and advertisements will be blocked on Mobile phones, Tablets, Computers, Laptops and all other devices where you can browse the internet with.

I recommend changing your DNS in your router so all devices within your network will use the Ad Blocking DNS automatically.

This DNS server will stay online for a long time, so you do not need to worry about that. It’s really stable right now and I’m not having any issues with it at this moment.

You can check the uptime of the DNS server right here: https://stats.uptimerobot.com/O7AMZF2z4

Update: This DNS Server is down!
