    You'll need to familiarize yourself with the CCP and the SCP* first (the latter allows you to access the console on your server where the provided root password will work) and install vsftpd or the like afterwards in order to be able to use [S]FTP[S] in the first place. The Netcup wiki is written in German, but using machine translation (like the links shown here) might help you out.
