A real free vps?

[RedRobin2442]

Ive been looking for a legit free vps. Nothing fancy needed at all but just a debian install, but I cant find a damn thing. Anyone know of a service that will offer up a free vps, even if its really bad?

There's no such thing as a free VPS, I don't think.  I got one for $13 a year.  That's the cheapest I've seen.

There are too much possibilities for abuse (spam, (d)dos, bitcoin-mining ...), too much administrative work and too less opportunities to earn money (where to put ads if there is no webserver on that virtual machine) so I don't think anyone would offer a vps for free.

Paid VPS services are so cheap that I don't see any reason why to find a free one.

I've found decent vps's as low as $3 there

There is once in a while free VPS offers, but as the above post points out, VPS has went down a lot in prices, you can get a low ended one extremely cheaply.

It looks like a 14 day trial now, maybe, but it was previously as long as you used it simply for linking your facebook: https://chunkhost.com/
Another that I used for a bit, however they were flaky, and now "require" you to install some anti-virus to participate. Instead click the download link as it allows you to proceed to the registration page but do not install the AV (unless you really want to...): http://www.host1free.com/vps-registration/


Just remember you get what you pay for.
I have since abandoned both free vps's in favor of http://webfaction.com or if you are feeling so kind http://www.webfaction.com?affiliate=bitspill

Ive tried a bunch of these and non give you anything put spam attempts from them. I have a paid vps (2 actually) but I wanted to try to have more connections for a project I am working on and need many more connections that would cost way to much.
