install UniFi NVR on a Linux-based VPS (Linode, DigitalOcean, Vultr, etc.)
NOTE: Currently tested on Ubuntu 16.04 LTS and Debian hosted on Linode.
Run install.sh!
If the status shows it's running with no failures, it'll be available via [your server ip]:7443.
Setup your NVR and generate/copy your camera adoption token.
On your local network, go to your camera(s) IP address(es) in your browser and configure them to point to [your server ip]. It'll automatically assume port 7443 in its absence, so no need to include a port.
