1) Download Putty
2) Configure a 'Profile' with the information VPSLink sent to you via email
3) Login using the new profile. Depending on your web-server's root-doc location, change to that directory. (for ex: cd /var/www/my-forum.com/)
4) wget http://www.phpbb-domain.com/downloads/phpbb3.tar.gz -- please replace that with the ACTUAL path to the tar.gz archive.
5) tar -zxvf phpbb3.tar.gz -- please replace that with the ACTUAL name of the archive
6) Follow phpBB instructions to complete the installation from there..

irc.freenode.net:#vpslink if you require additional assistance.
