Hey @nkwentiv

Here's the quickest process to get (S)FTP access, but check out the additional guides at the bottom as they will save you a lot of stress.

Before using FTP, you need to login to your server via SSH once in order to set your own password.

• Open up the Terminal app and type: ssh root@[YOUR-DROPLET-IP-ADDRESS] where you replace [YOUR-DROPLET-IP-ADDRESS] with the IP Address listed in your control panel
• You will be prompted for your password, paste in the password that was emailed to you
• You will be prompted to set your own password, (first paste in the original password again, then type your own secure password twice.)
• Now you can close the terminal window and login via SFTP with the credentials below.

• Go to your droplet in the control panel and open up the Web Console
• Use root as the username and type in the password that was emailed to you.
• You will be prompted to set your own password, (first paste in the original password again, then type your own secure password twice.)

Use the following credentials to login with the program of your choice:
HOST: [YOUR-DROPLET-IP-ADDRESS]
USER: root
PASSWORD: [YOUR-PASSWORD]
PORT: 22

(port 22 is used for SFTP or Secure FTP, which is better)
