Procedures to launch a fully-operational site on a VPS - web

OK, there is a newbie on VPS here.
I want to know what should i need to do in order to launch a site on VPS!(All things in order)
There is a site called vpsbible i just don't want to watch all those videos!
I can arrange to do any thing, but i need to know the steps i need take.
What i am asking is what is the sequence for launching a website on a VPS!?
i.e from buying a host to DNS configuration, etc...
PS: i googled the topic but i didn't find anything solid.

It's very easy adding a site on VPS server using the VPS hosting control panel - Plesk in Windows VPS, and cPanel in Linux VPS.
Login in your hosting control panel.
Add a new account
Add a new site
Create email and FTP accounts
Point your domain name to your VPS server via DNS settings.
Deploy your site via FTP.
That's it with few steps. :)

Adding webapp server to namecheap domain that is already in use for gmail domain service

I have setup a domain on namecheap and I'm currently using it for gmail/google workspace.
I would also like to deploy a webapp to the same domain - I have the site setup on digitalocean.
When I went through the process of adding the NS values to the domain panel in namecheap I realized it removed the server that allowed the email setup.
How do I safely service both the webapp and email servers from the same domain? Any help will be appreciated! Thanks in advance.
Figured it out - namecheap doesn't support what I want to do.. I can either
Use the two services it does support (wix or weebly)
Handle the email domain setup from digitalocean
On further reflection this definitely makes sense, but I wish it were slightly easier :P

Netsuite: SuiteCommerce Advanced Local Development

DO you have to have a CNAME and hosting to work on SCA locally? It appears so, I could be wrong, Im just wondering if there is any way to get around this using alternate hosting methods like Azure App Services or CDN's
You should be able to add any domain you want in NetSuite. As long as your hosts file points to it, along with the NetSuite IP, you'll be able to access it via that domain.
You don't need to purchase a domain to access it, provided it's a host file entry :)

SharePoint IIS Configuration

I am new at SharePoint and have installed and configured everything, on the local machine (where SharePoint is installed), I connect with the PC name, and everything is working, I can access the front-end and the Central Administration. I have a dns record that points to the ip of the computer. So on another machine, I use the url (intranet.domain.com) to connect. Central Administration works (intranet.domain.com:12548) but when I try to access the front-end (Port 80 - intranet.domain.com) I get the following on my screen
I presume something on my IIS is not setup correctly.
Any advise how I can fix this?
Turns out, I need to create a new Web Application for the new Site Collection

Get domain & subdomain of server by console application

Let's take one case that i hosted my web application on window server 2008 R2 and one exe (console application) running on that server.
I can access that web application by URI:
<subdomain>.<domain>.net , is there any way to get subdomain and domain info from EXE (C#) ?
Thanks in Advance.
The answer is... it depends.
If you only have one site hosted on your box then you can just connect to the local instance via either the IP Address the website on the machine resolves too, or by using http://localhost etc.
When you have a URL, the situation becomes more complicated. The machine could be hosting several websites - how do you know which one you want to connect to? In this instance, I would advise just storing the url you want to connect to in config.
However, it should be possible to list the all of the domains from IIS - you'll need to use WMI.

TFS2010: Single Server Deployment wizard, Bad sharepoint URLs

I just installed TFS2010, and set it up with the single server wizard. It installed me Sharepoint Services an let everything working pretty well.
But, the sharepoint URLs it generates from the Server name "server". As my setup is without a domain, the URLs work okay only from the server computer, not from the others.
I have to give access to LAN clients, and Internet Clients, both connected thought my Public Ip.
How can I change those sharepoint IPs from TFS to be generated From the IP, not from the Server's name??
Thanks in advance
Sharepoint is simply an ASP.Net web application sitting on IIS so all the configuration for host headers etc can be added in IIS itself - if you have multiple instance of sharepoint running on the server, you'll have to add URL's using the sharepoint configuration site but most stuff can be tweaked through IIS (IP's its listening on etc)
If you not on an domainan and want people to have access to the site though you'll have to add your machines IP to the DNS server that you clients are using
