You just use the same IP address.

Access files via IP address

I dont really understand.. if i use my Main I.P addy for the server or the I.P for the actually domain name i added.. I can only see my index /cgi-bin/

I cant add /cpanel on the end to log into that, and i cant use FTP either.

So how do i get access to upload ?

just using http://123.123.123/#mydomain doesnt work

Login as root and you can see everything.

Use SFTP.

No, you need to use a tilde and the username, not a hash and domain name.

e.g. http://123.123.123.123/~myuser

Apache will also have to be configured to allow this:
