Having root-level access to a server means that you'll be able to view and change any file on it, which includes important system files. You can also set up software that can change specific settings on your server during the process, so the installation is possible only if you are logged in as the root user. The latter has full privileges, which means that you will have full control over the machine whenever you want and you can perform anything you would like. You can also make various other users either with identical rights or with fewer rights, based on what you require them for - day-to-day tasks, other server admins, etc. To be on the safe side, it's usually recommended to employ the root account only when you actually need it and not for tasks that can be done via other accounts. You may use a web-based graphical interface or a Secure Shell console to connect with the server and to control it at the root level.

Full Root-level Access in Dedicated Hosting

If you get one of the Linux dedicated servers hosting packages which we supply, you will have full root-level access and you can do anything that you are unable to do with a shared web hosting account - to customize the server-side PHP settings, to set up frameworks or media streaming software, etcetera. You will be able to order the server with no hosting Control Panel and do everything using a console, unless you set up a third-party tool, or you can order it with cPanel and use a web-based graphical interface to manage your web sites and many system settings. In all three cases, you'll have full control over the server. The significant amount of system resources which you'll 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 easier to manage, but the root access to such a machine is limited.
