Ordering FastDL and credentials
How to rent
- Open Dashboard → Services and pick a project.
- Click Rent service.
- Choose FastDL as the service type.
- Pick a plan — they differ in storage size.
- Confirm the order.
- Plans: they differ only in storage size.
- The rent button — the amount is charged to the balance immediately.
The cost is charged to your balance. If there isn't enough, top up first.
After payment the service is created automatically: an account is set up on the server, a subdomain is allocated and file serving is configured. This usually takes a few seconds.
Where to see the credentials
In the service list click the FastDL row — the control panel opens. It has everything you need:
| Field | What it is |
|---|---|
| FastDL address | http://<hash>.fastdl.sourhost.net — this goes into the game server's config |
| Used / total | How much of the plan's quota is used |
| SFTP host | The address to connect a file client to |
| Login | The SFTP username |
| Port | The SFTP port |
| Password | Hidden behind dots — click the eye icon to reveal |
Each field has a copy button next to it.
The FastDL password is separate — it's not your sourhost account password. It's generated when the service is created and stored encrypted.
What's next
Connect over SFTP and upload the files — how exactly is described in Uploading files and sv_downloadurl.
