When you have root-level access to a server, it indicates that you'll have full control of it. In other words, you'll be able set up any server-side app whatever the changes that it'll make to the software environment on the server, and you will be able to both access and customize any kind of file, which includes system files, and modify any settings. This can be done by connecting to the server as a root user who has full privileges to do the aforementioned things and also to generate other users, including users who also have full privileges. This particular can be established through a web-based graphical interface or a Secure Shell console. For security reasons, it's recommended that you make 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 which may be required by some script-driven application that you would like to run.

Full Root-level Access in VPS Hosting

The Linux VPS hosting packages that we supply are appropriate for many different purposes, based on what you would like to install and run on them and the experience that you have. When your hosting server features the cPanel or the DirectAdmin hosting Control Panel, you will have full root access and will be able to control your world-wide web content through a graphical interface, whereas you may still install server-side apps which may be needed for your web sites and even by offline apps, like VoIP programs, media encoding software, various frameworks, etcetera. Without any Control Panel, you'll also have full root-level access, but you will have to do everything using a console. If you choose to use our custom-made Hepsia web hosting Control Panel, there are certain root access restrictions, but this configuration is the most convenient to manage. Thus, you can select the virtual server plan which you need.

Full Root-level Access in Dedicated Web Hosting

If you get one of the Linux dedicated web hosting 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 hosting account - to customize the server-side PHP settings, to set up frameworks or media streaming software, and many others. You will be able to order the server without any hosting Control Panel and do everything through a console, unless you set up a third-party instrument, or you can order it with cPanel or DirectAdmin and use a web-based graphical interface to control your web sites and many system settings. In all 3 cases, you will have full control of the machine. The considerable amount of resources that you'll get makes our dedicated packages 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 manage, still the root access to such a machine will be restricted.
