When you have root-level access to a server, this means that you will have full control over it. That is to say, you'll be able install any server-side application irrespective of the changes that it will make to the software environment on the server, and you are able to both access and change any kind of file, which includes system files, and modify various settings. This can be done by connecting to the server as a root user that has full privileges to do all these things and to create other users, which includes users that also have full privileges. This particular can be established with a web-based graphical interface or a Secure Shell console. For safety reasons, it is recommended that you make a different user for your daily work and use the root user only when you need to modify the server or to install software that may be needed by some script-driven app that you wish to run.

Full Root-level Access in VPS Servers

Our VPS servers feature different levels of access, to give you the option to pick the one you need, according to your level of experience and on what you'll need the server for. When you acquire a VPS without Control Panel, you'll have full root-level access and you will manage everything through a console, unless you install a third-party software instrument. The servers that are ordered with the DirectAdmin or the cPanel hosting Control Panel also come with full root access, yet most of the things that are related to your web content can be performed with a graphical interface and not a console. You are able to install different frameworks or media streaming software, for example, without a problem. If you get your virtual server with the Hepsia Control Panel, you can still use a Secure Shell console to connect, however, the root access will be restricted. Yet, the Hepsia-equipped servers are the easiest to control.

Full Root-level Access in Dedicated Servers

When you get one of the dedicated servers that we supply, you will have full root-level access and you will be able to do anything that you cannot do using a shared web hosting account - to change the server-side PHP settings, to install frameworks or media streaming software, etc. You'll be able to order the server with no web hosting Control Panel and do everything with a console, unless you set up some third-party tool, or you can order it with cPanel or DirectAdmin and use a web-based graphical interface to manage your Internet sites and many system settings. In all 3 cases, you will have full control over your machine. The huge amount of resources that you will get makes our dedicated packages a fantastic choice for any type of content that you would like to have. The servers which are ordered with the Hepsia Control Panel are easier to control, but the root access to such a machine will be limited.
