А как привязать домен, ссл сертификат?

[@MivoCloud]

Приветствую! Имеется ввиду на сервер или что именно?

[@agustin2574]

Hola, no pude entrar a mi servidor desde otra computadora que no sea donde cree el servidor sabes que es?
Hello I couldn’t get into my server from another pc that it wasn’t where I create the server, can you help me?

[@MivoCloud]

Greetings! I need more information to understand your problem. Are you unable to log in to our server or are you renting from someone else? Or did you just do the server separately and try to connect remotely?

[@agustin2574]

The third option, I make the server on one pc but if I try to enter from another don’t let me in

[@MivoCloud]

@@agustin2574 This is not the best solution because you need to understand and know a lot. Opening ports, installing connectivity, and more. However, if there is no rental option, then you should familiarize yourself with how to open ports and give access to a remote connection.
