Hello everyone,

I’ve already hosted my chatroom application on a VPS server, but I’m having trouble figuring out the correct IP address and port number to connect the chat to the server.

Could anyone help with:
1. How to find the right IP address to use?
2. How to choose or check the correct port for the connection?
3. Any firewall or networking settings I should configure?

I’d really appreciate any guidance. Thanks in advance!
You need to specify where your VPS is located or hosted at so we can provide useful feedback for your use case-is it Google Cloud, Azure or Digital Ocean?

I see they are a Nigerian hosting company. I haven't used them before and they don't have offer a free tier option that one could have used to try things out on their platform. I'll suggest you check out the corresponding documentation for the VPS or, better still, reach out to their support. I hope you find your answers!

Can you ssh into the command line of your server? I’m assuming it is a Linux server. What’s the output of “sudo ip a” (without the quotes). What’s the output of “ sudo ss -tulnp”? What’s the name of your app/software?
