When you have root-level access to a server, it means that you'll have full control over it. In other words, you'll be able set up any server-side app whatever the changes that it will make to the software setting on the server, and you'll be able to both access and customize any file, including system files, and change various settings. You can do this by connecting to the server as a root user who has full privileges to do all these things and also to create other users, which includes users that also have full privileges. This particular can be established through a web-based graphical interface or a Secure Shell console. For safety reasons, it's recommended that you create a separate user for your everyday work and employ the root user only when you need to modify the server or to set up software that may be required by a script-driven application that you wish to run.

Full Root-level Access in VPS Servers

Our VPS servers feature different levels of access, so as to give you the option to choose the one you need, according to your level of experience and on what you need the server for. If you obtain a VPS with no Control Panel, you'll have full root-level access and you will control everything from a console, unless you set up some third-party software tool. The servers which are ordered with the DirectAdmin or the cPanel web hosting Control Panel also come with full root access, however most of the things which are related to your online content can be performed using a graphical interface and not a console. You are able to install various different frameworks or media streaming software, for instance, without a problem. When you get the virtual server with the Hepsia Control Panel, you may still use a Secure Shell console to connect, but the root access is limited. Yet, the Hepsia-equipped servers are the simplest to manage.

Full Root-level Access in Dedicated Servers

If you get one of the dedicated servers which we supply, you'll have full root-level access and you will be able to do anything that you are unable to do with a shared website hosting account - to customize the server-side PHP settings, to set up frameworks or media streaming software, and the like. You will be able to order the server without website hosting Control Panel and do everything with a console, unless you install a third-party tool, or you can order it with cPanel or DirectAdmin and use a web-based graphical interface to manage your web sites and many system settings. In all three cases, you'll have complete control of the server. The huge amount of system resources which you will have makes our dedicated plans a great choice for any type of content that you would like to have. The servers which are ordered with the Hepsia Control Panel are much easier to maintain, but the root access to such a server will be restricted.
