I need to put a couple of defines in my wp-config.php file in order to set the access keys for the AWS plugin. The AWS plugin recommends setting these in the wp-config.php file

You have FTP credentials in the Site Manager on the details page for your site. You'll need to use an FTP client program. FileZilla is a popular one for Windows. On my Mac I use Transmit.

Once you establish the FTP connection you'll have access to the web directory for your site. You should be able to edit any of the files there.

If you're working on the config.php page I'd highly recommend making a copy of it first. Call it config_bak.php or something.

Keep in mind also that the config.php file is essential to your site's operation. Doing something wrong there can wreak havoc on your site. Tread lightly and always backup first.

Thanks, Darrel. I didn't know I had ftp access.
