That message comes from their VM software. You need to ask them.

Need Help with OpenBSD VPS

2019-08-17 Thread Michael G Workman
Hello,

Thanks everyone for the great work on OpenBSD, I am very happy such a great
operating system is available for people to use.

I am planning to install OpenBSD on a laptop I have in the future, I am
just waiting for the laptop to be returned to me after being repaired, in
the meantime I obtained a free Unix (NetBSD) Shell account at SDF.org, and
I also obtained an OpenBSD VPS from them as well.

I was able to initialize the VPS no problem, but when I try to connect to
it, I get a message of "openbsd does not support PV style console" and I am
unable to connect, the same message mentions TinyVNC. I tried connecting
using Putty, SSH from the shell, and also OpenSSH from the command line on
my Windows 10 laptop, still get the same message no matter which connection
message. Google and Bing searches return nothing. I sent multiple emails to
SDF but no replies yet.

I am also trying to get help on openbsd IRC channel on freenode.

I could really use some help with this issue, I want to start working with
OpenBSD right away.

Thank you.
