I just set up a VPS on PulseServers as I noticed quite a few running
relays had mostly good things to say about the service. So Far the
people operating the servers seem very cooperative and responsive.
Anyway I've been running a middle relay for 1.5 years and know the
"ropes" pretty well, however a VPS is new to me.
After setting up Tor and tor-arm on the VPS I'm not able to connect
with this error: unable to reconnect (connection refused. Is the
ControlPort Enabled?)
I've edited ~/home/.arm/torrc and /etc/tor/torrc un-commenting the
ControlPort 9052 and all the other typical ports, etc.. Obviously I'm
not able to forward or enable ports on the VPS, so do I need to ask
the admin to make some changes?

Thanks
