Having root-level access to your server means that you can view and modify any file on it, which includes essential system files. You may also install software that can modify particular settings on your server throughout the, so the installation can be performed only if you are logged in as the root user. The aforementioned has full privileges, i.e. you will have full control over your machine whenever you want and you will be able to do anything you want. You may also make various other users either with identical rights or with fewer rights, based on what you want them for - day-to-day tasks, other server administrators, etcetera. To be on the safe side, it is usually recommended to employ the root account only when you really need it and not for tasks that can be done via other accounts. You can use a web-based graphical interface or a Secure Shell console to be able to connect with the server and to control it at the root level.

Full Root-level Access in Dedicated Web Hosting

Each and every dedicated server that we supply gives you full root-level access, when the server is ordered without a Control Panel, or with cPanel or DirectAdmin. If you'd like to set up and run heavy, resource-demanding apps and they have specific requirements regarding the server software setting which can't be fulfilled by a standard shared hosting package, our servers will be the best solution. With no Control Panel at hand, you are able to access the server and modify its settings and the content that you upload through a console, whereas with cPanel and DirectAdmin, you will have a graphical interface to control everything related to your web content, and also most server-side settings. Of course, if you get a dedicated server with no Control Panel, you can set up some third-party software instrument manually, as long as it supports the OS that you have selected at registration. If you pick the Hepsia Control Panel on the order page, you'll have limited root access, yet you'll still be able to do a number of things using a Secure Shell console.
