I think it is more important to determine what are your key apps on the server; then back them up if you think they are not compromised and rebuild the VPS server from scratch; and reinstall your app.
You should also make sure your file system is secure based on the apps that are running, and run a cryptographic file system management tool (tripwire or some other version of the same thing) immediately to get a baseline.
What you have failed to mention is the core production app that is running on the server. Is it a web server? A mail server? A database back end?
It is really not possible to help you if you are not specific about what is "core app" and what is "supporting files". The reason is that you need to rebuild your file system from scratch to be perfectly safe. However, there may be some files you need (database, web files) that are not compromised and you can just back them up, reinstall the system (the supporting file system) and then get the main act up and running.
But the exact strategy is based on what is the main core application running on the server.
Is is basically a web server?

Catalyst::Manual::Deployment::DevelopmentServer(3pm) User Contributed Perl Documentation Catalyst::Manual::Deployment::DevelopmentServer(3pm)
NAME
Catalyst::Manual::DevelopmentServer - Development server deployment
The development server is a mini web server written in Perl. However, if you supply the "-f" option to the development server, it will load
the higher performance Starman server, which can be used as an application server with a lightweight proxy web server at the front.
Setup
Start up the development server
script/myapp_server.pl -p 8080 -k -f --pidfile=/tmp/myapp.pid
You will probably want to write an init script to handle stop/starting the app using the pid file.
Configuring Apache
Make sure mod_proxy is enabled and add:
# Serve static content directly
DocumentRoot /var/www/MyApp/root
Alias /static /var/www/MyApp/root/static
ProxyRequests Off
<Proxy *>
Order deny,allow
Allow from all
</Proxy>
# Need to specifically stop these paths from being passed to proxy
ProxyPass /static !
ProxyPass /favicon.ico !
ProxyPass / http://localhost:8080/
ProxyPassReverse / http://localhost:8080/
# This is optional if you'd like to show a custom error page
# if the proxy is not available
ErrorDocument 502 /static/error_pages/http502.html
You can wrap the above within a VirtualHost container if you want different apps served on the same host.
Other web servers
The proxy configuration above can also be replicated with a different frontend server or proxy, such as varnish, nginx, or lighttpd.
