This guide shows you how to create a Noipfraud server in minutes. It is for users who have no experience with server setup. So its very detailed step by step, and does NOT involved difficult code, SSH or server terminal commands.
In summary, in this guide we will cover the following steps:
You need:
The guide uses servers that have CloudPanel installed. This will make it easy to create & manage your sites - but is optional. If you have your own servers / preferred host and know how to install php apps, then you don’t need to follow this guide.
Follow the CloudPanel guide for your preferred host below:
Tips:
If you don’t want to use any of these, here are some more complicated CloudPanel setups for Azure, Google, Oracle, Herzner.
Ones your server has been created, open the CloudPanel screen in your browser by appending the port 8443 to your server ip address like this, replacing yourIpAddress
with the IP address for your server: https://yourIpAddress:8443
.
Ignore the self-signed certificate / connection not private error in your browser if it shows up. An example for chrome is shown below. Select the required option (Proceed to ….
) to continue opening the site.

When open your server CloudPanel in your browser for the first time - you should see this:
After the admin user is created, login.
Follow the steps below to add your first site.
Click add + add site
button.
Select create a PHP site
Configure the site: Generic application, php 7.4 and enter the domain name.
Generic
[test.noipfraud.com](http://test.noipfraud.com)
as an example. The next section will show how to setup DNS and SSL.This section covers the following steps:
First you need to setup the DNS for your domain to point an A record to your server IP. You can copy your server IP address in your browser by clicking it.
Click the IP address to copy it.
Next open the DNS management panel of your preferred domain management solution.
In the example below I am using Cloudflare in DNS only mode. This is so its more consistent with other domain management solutions. If you use another domain registrar, please see the FAQ section below with links to their guides. If you want to use Cloudflare in Proxy mode please see the relevant FAQ below.
You now need to create your A record.
Add record
buttonA
if your server is showing a IPv4 address like ours (eg 4 numbers separated by dots). If your server has IPv6 address - select the AAAA
type. You can add both if your server has a IPv4 and an IPv6 address.www
or if you set your site for the root domain use @
. In our case the site is setup for [test.noipfraud.com](http://test.noipfraud.com)
so we enter test
here.You should now see the record you setup:
Next we need to setup SSL.
Note: If you are using Cloudflare in Proxy mode then you can skip this step.
In most cases you want your server to be setup with a free LetsEncrypt SSL certificate for your domain.
You can do this easily in CloudPanel.
If you are using Cloudflare with Proxy enabled, you dont need to setup SSL as its provided by Cloudflare.
So go back to the Site management screen you were on when you uploaded Noipfraud.
SSL/TLS
tabActions
buttonNew Let's Encrypt Certificate
Create and install
If all went well you should see this confirmation
And the LetsEncrypt certificate for your domain should be listed in the table below it. Note: LetsEncrypt certificates last 3 months and are automatically renewed by CloudPanel.
Now your ready to test your domain.
Click the Manage
button for your domain to access the file manager.
Manage your site.
Select the File Manager Tab
Next we need to go to the web folder (file > htdocs > domain
) for your site.
htdocs
in the sidebar, and expand it[test.noipfraud.com](http://test.noipfraud.com)
- yours will be different!index.php
and select the Edit file
option.Replace the code with this:
<?php
phpinfo();
?>
Then press save
and close the edit window by clicking the x
on the right.
Now open your domain in your browser, in our case this is: https://test.noipfraud.com
but yours will be different of course.
You should see something like this:
If you do not see this - then please contact us on telegram.
To install Noipfraud, first download a fresh Noipfraud zip file to your laptop as you will need it in a moment to install:
Next - You need to upload and extract the noipfraud software.
example
Add new
button in the side bar, and this time select Upload file
and select the noipfraud-client-1.8.zip
file you downloaded at the start of this section. You can get it here.Extract
from the popup menu and enter an appropriate folder name - make sure you read the important message below!It should look like this - of course file Owners and Dates will be different.
You are now ready to open your Noipfraud client in your browser. The URL to your noipfraud client will consist of:
/app
sub folderSo it will be like this: [https://{domain}/{folder}/app](https://domain/folder/app)
.
In the case of our example it will be: [https://test.noipfraud.com/example/app](https://test.noipfraud.com/example/app)
. Yours will be different but should always end in /app
.
If all goes well you should briefly see this screen when the noipfraud software makes sure the server is compatible:
Its shortly followed by the config screen where you can enter your API details and set the login for this specific noipfraud client.
If all goes well you should see this screen briefly, followed by the login screen.
Here is the screen after you login for the first time:
Some useful things to check:
campaigns
tab is where you create and manage your campaignssupport
link in the menu logs you into our support site where you can read our getting started guides, and manage your account.Here are some FAQs related to setting up your server:
What are your server requirements?
Noipfraud uses PHP and is compatible with version 5 to 7. It also requires some php extensions: php-curl, php-openssl, php-mbstring, php-sqlite3. Use a linux server - AMD64.
For webserver we recommend nginx. For small amounts of traffic (<100k visits a day) - a 1GB 1CPU server should be sufficient. For 100-500k visits a day - go for 4GB / 2CPU. Above 500k scale as needed from 8GB / 4CPU.
Can you show me DNS guide for other registrars?
Sure can - just follow the links below for your preferred registrar:
How to use Cloudflare in Proxy Mode?
Its straight forward. Im assuming you have setup your domain in cloudflare. Just login to dash.cloudflare.com and go to your websites DNS settings. If you already the A record in DNS only mode, all you need to do is enable the Proxy mode. Or you can create your A record with Proxy mode enabled.
How do I use multiple domains with the same site?
It is possible but its difficult and not recommended.
How many sites can I host on 1 server?
Its really just limited by the size of your server and the amount of traffic your getting. However - we dont recommend hosting many different noipfraud sites on a single server as this creates a single point of failure and possible footprint. Better to spread your risk across multiple servers.
How do I change the domain for an existing site I setup?
The recommended way is to create a new site, and then copy the files from the old site. You can do this via SSH, or in the file manager by compressing your web folder, downloading it and then uploading it again to your newly setup site. You may need to edit file owner/group permissions.
Can I run other software on this Server?
Yes. CloudPanel comes with a ton of easy to install applications for PHP, NodeJs and Python. Just add a site, and look through the available options.
How do I integrate Noipfraud with Wordpress?
At the moment we have not tried this out with a CloudPanel server. It might be possible to create a new PHP Site and select the Wordpress option, then install noipfraud indside that site following the guide above. But we have not tried this. Contact us on telegram to let us know your interested in this.
What is your recommended campaign setup?
Every campaign is different so there isnt really a best setup. But I guess you know this. We do always suggest to use non-redirect style campaigns if you can, and the embed non redirect is probably the best option. You can find the guide for this in your noip client support section.
And here are some other relevant questions:
