First login

Get access data, connect and change the root password.

The commands apply to Debian and Ubuntu. On other systems, package managers and service names differ.
  1. Get the IP address and root login details from the customer panel.
  2. Connect:
    ssh root@IP-ADDRESS
  3. Change the root password immediately:
    passwd

The initial password is only a starting value. Then work through the other steps in this category so the password is no longer needed later.
