Having root-level access to a server signifies that you'll be able to view and update any file on it, including essential system files. You may also install software that can update certain settings on your server during the process, so the installation can be performed only if you are signed in as the root user. The latter has full privileges, i.e. you'll have full control over your machine whenever you want and you'll be able to perform anything you want. You may also generate additional users either with the same rights or with fewer rights, based on what you require them for - everyday tasks, other server administrators, etc. To be on the safe side, it is generally recommended to use the root account only when you really need it and not for tasks that you can do 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 manage it at the root level.

Full Root-level Access in VPS

Our Linux VPS come with different degrees of access, to give you the option to choose the one you need, depending on 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 can manage everything from a console, unless you set up a third-party software instrument. The servers which are ordered with the DirectAdmin or the cPanel website hosting Control Panel also come with full root access, however most of the things which are linked to your world-wide web content can be performed with a graphical interface and not a console. You can set up various different frameworks or media streaming software, for example, without any problems. If you obtain your virtual website hosting server with the Hepsia Control Panel, you can still use a Secure Shell console to connect, but the root access is limited. Yet, the Hepsia-equipped servers are the easiest to take care of.

Full Root-level Access in Dedicated Hosting

When you get one of the Linux dedicated hosting that we offer, you will have full root-level access and you will be able to do anything that you can't do using a shared web hosting account - to customize the server-side PHP settings, to install frameworks or media streaming software, etcetera. You may order the server without 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 manage your Internet sites and many system settings. In all 3 cases, you will have complete control of the server. The huge amount of system resources which you'll have makes our dedicated plans an excellent 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 manage, yet the root access to such a machine is limited.
