You can attach it as a Custom VPS if you want?

Thanks @bashy I was wondering if anyone had actually done it and had learnt a thing or two.

I am not really a fan of having to have a root user for forge to use and would like to be able to connect forge to servers that exist already and haven't been build by forge.

@njames007 Yeah that's not really possible since it needs a certain setup to automate the stuff it does. I've not used it but it will basically set them up the same as using the services (DO, Linode, AWS).
