DislikedWell that is wishfull thinking...Photon has no info on its knowledge base other than a link to a microsoft page with just basic info on remote desktop...nothing on the settings for VPS MT4 there.
In particular I will like to know:
Shoul I use a console connection or not.
Is MT4 restarted automatically if Photon reboots, or would I have to rig this myself....as described in the guides attached.
I am attaching 2 PDFs files on connecting to VPS for MT4, but don't know if these are applicable to Photon or if they are the same with Windows 7....Ignored
Photon set up my MT4 to start automatically from the "Startup" folder for me in the beginning, but if they didn't do it on yours, you just add a shortcut to the "Startup" folder just like you would on your computer (basic windows stuff). If you want to do simple tasks like reboot the server or make sure it's online etc, you can use Photon's new control panel through the web if you don't want bother with RDC.
I have to agree with you that their "pre-sales" info is pretty bare. I tried to poke around their site before I signed up too, to try and get more info about admin stuff, but came up empty. I took the plunge anyway. Like I said, it's very simple to use...I was expecting something more complicated I guess. Their support people do seem pretty good, though I've only had to contact them once.
Does that help at all?
