Hi,  
As requested by dumitru in #799311  
Our community is getting big and it become difficult to manage all request, to be more organized and productive, we are thinking to setup a bugzilla, and other diffrent services and projects. unfortunately the actual hosting plan is not sufficient, and we are requesting for a VPS. I don't know if it still possible but it will really nice because we need it ! 

so as said in the wki : 
    * Where the users will mainly come from Tunisia    
    * What will run on it : wiki, bugzilla, blogs, gallery, ...)
    * An estimation of the number of visitors 500/day
    * Do you have a sysadmin to manage the server?  Yes (medFiras)
    * We want ubuntu server as a distribution for the VPS  
    * Any other informations : After looking for the ovh's plans it seems that CPU 1.5 GHz, 1GB Dedicated Memory, 100 GB Storage space is sufficient.
 
Thanks :)

I'll place the order tomorrow.
In the meantime, please send me your OVH NIC handle. If you don't have one, go here [1] and create one.

OVH installs a default Gentoo on their VPS-es.
I strongly recommend re-image it with CentOS, or something that you feel comfortable managing.
Let me know.

Well, William didn't find any email containing the root password, and I have re-imaged to Ubuntu Server, I was expecting that it will ask for a root password but I think it's automaticlly generated !
