Type in root and press enter, then you will be prompted to enter a password. Use the password provided in the account information email. The characters you’ll be typing will not be displayed on the screen for security purposes. You may also copy the password and use the right click button on your mouse to paste the password, again note that the characters will not be displayed. After you have entered your password you should be logged in your VPS as root.
