# 🔌 Setting up Thermos into your Server 🔌

First you will have to connect via Filezilla to your server. Here is our guide for doing so.

After doing so we please you to follow the next steps:

1. Delete all server files.  
---

2. Add the 'jar' folder that you created and the 'libraries' folder to the root directory of the new fresh server.

|| NOTE: The 'libraries' folder needs to be inside the 'jar' folder and also inside the root directory of the server.  
---

3. Go to your main Multicraft page and set your server type to 'custom.jar'.
