Setup Authentication

Set a password, or an SSH key if you are familiar with them

Script link: https://github.com/rfresh2/ZenithProxy/blob/1.21.4/scripts/cloud-init.yaml

The setup script will automatically download the ZenithProxy launcher to ~/ZenithProxy, and install recommended tools like tmux.

Create Droplet

Wait about 5-10 mins for the droplet to fully setup before proceeding.

SSH to the droplet

If so, type the password and press enter. The password input is hidden while you are typing.

Setup and Launch ZenithProxy

Run the launcher:

./launch
