In this video I take you step by step through budling a FOREVER FREE (for everybody) Ubuntu 22.04 VPS.I explain first, how you can sign up to Google Cloud, If you don't have a Google Cloud Account already. How you can set a Project Budget and Alarm so you are notified for example if the Instance starts to use more Network Traffic, than they give you free each month email
. It then takes you through creating the Google Cloud Instance, so that it in in the always free tier. I then show you the Linux command line instructions needed to build it. I than show how to change the Google Cloud Firewall to let RDP though it, but on a new port. I then demonstrate accessing it from my Windows PC using the Remote Connection Software using RDP. I explain it can be accessed via RDP using Linux, MacOS, Chromebook, iPhone, iPad , Android phone or tablet, and provide information below covering each. I then explain how a small amount of Desktop Configuration is needed, and what it is. I finish by showing the Google Cloud Cost Explorer, so you can confirm it is always running at zero cost so is still free.
