Having root-level access to your server signifies that you will be able to view and change any file on it, including important system files. You may also set up software which can change specific settings on the server during the process, so that the installation can be done only if you are signed 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 will be able to do anything you would like. You can also generate additional users either with similar rights or with fewer rights, based on what you want them for - daily tasks, other server admins, etcetera. To be on the safe side, it's generally recommended to use the root account only when you actually need it and not for tasks which can be done via other accounts. You may use a web-based graphical interface or a Secure Shell console in order to connect to the server and to control it at the root level.

Full Root-level Access in VPS Hosting

Our Linux VPS hosting services come with different degrees of access, in order to give you the option to pick the one you need, based on your level of experience and on what you need the server for. When you get a VPS without any Control Panel, you will have full root-level access and you can control everything through a console, unless you install some third-party tool. The servers which are ordered with the DirectAdmin or the cPanel website hosting Control Panel also feature full root access, yet most of the things which are linked to your online content can be performed with a graphical interface and not a console. You can install many different frameworks or media streaming software, for instance, without a problem. If you order the virtual website hosting server with the Hepsia Control Panel, you may still use a Secure Shell console to connect, but the root access is restricted. Yet, the Hepsia-equipped servers are the simplest to take care of.

Full Root-level Access in Dedicated Web Hosting

If you get one of the Linux dedicated web hosting that we provide, you'll have full root-level access and you will be able to do anything that you are unable to do using a shared web hosting account - to update the server-side PHP settings, to set up frameworks or media streaming software, etc. You will be able to order the server with no web hosting Control Panel and do everything through a console, unless you install some third-party tool, or you can order it with cPanel or DirectAdmin and use a web-based graphical interface to manage your sites and many system settings. In all 3 cases, you'll have full control over your machine. The significant amount of resources that you will receive makes our dedicated plans a fantastic choice for any type of content that you would like to have. The servers that are ordered with the Hepsia Control Panel are simpler to control, yet the root access to such a machine will be restricted.
