How to Create a Linux VM in Azure
Creating a Linux VM in Azure
Go to the Azure Portal , click on Create a resource in the left-side navigation, then select the Compute category, then click on Ubuntu Server. At the time of writing this the version listed is Ubuntu Server 16.04 LTS.


For the VM Size, I would recommend choosing a size with at least 2 vCPUs, as this will give you better performance for the UI. Although, 1 vCPU would work just fine too, just maybe a little more slowly.
Finally, click Create to create the new Ubuntu Linux VM!
Now that you have an Ubuntu Server Linux VM, you are ready to setup RDP support.
