protoboard Posted February 26, 2015 Share Posted February 26, 2015 I've got a question that may be related to another post (Recommend me a free hosting) but I thought it would be better to have it as a separate thread here. The thing is I am working on a web app I want to test but a shared hosting (free or paid) won't work for me because there I cannot install a custom application like mine. That's why I'm looking for a VPS and would really like to get one for free because I just want it for testing purposes. I don't mind if it's just for a month or even for a week. Any of you know of some where to find a free VPS? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Administrators Nathan Posted February 27, 2015 Administrators Share Posted February 27, 2015 I've never heard of a free VPS. What do you need to install on the server to test? I may be able that will allow those if you let me know. melvs 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
protoboard Posted February 27, 2015 Author Share Posted February 27, 2015 Hi Nathan, It's a Red5 application I'm working on. I'm working locally on my computer but wanted to share and show my work to a friend and that's why I was looking for a free VPS. I've been searching around and it looks like there's no such thing so I think my best option is to just sign up for a service like dyndns and host the app on my home server. Thanks for the answer and offer melvs 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
digitalsatori Posted March 2, 2015 Share Posted March 2, 2015 (edited) I think your best bet would be to use something like DynDNS and host the app on your PC. You'll need to adjust the router settings to forward whatever ports you need to your PC, but once you do that, you would have full control of whatever functionality you needed in a server. [EDIT: I should totally read all of the posts before replying.] Edited March 2, 2015 by digitalsatori protoboard and melvs 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
