Having root-level access to your server signifies that you will be able to view and modify any file on it, which includes important system files. You may also install software that can update particular settings on the server throughout the, so that the installation can be performed only if you are logged in as the root user. The latter has full privileges, which means that you will have full control over your machine whenever you want and you can do anything you want. You can also generate other users either with similar rights or with fewer rights, depending on what you require them for - day-to-day tasks, other server admins, etcetera. To be on the safe side, it's generally recommended to use the root account only when you really 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 manage it at the root level.

Full Root-level Access in Dedicated Hosting

Each dedicated server that we supply includes full root-level access, if the server is ordered with no Control Panel, or with cPanel or DirectAdmin. If you would like to install and run heavy, resource-demanding applications and they have special requirements with regard to the server software setting that can't be fulfilled by a regular shared website hosting plan, our servers will be the right solution. Without Control Panel at hand, you can access the server and customize its settings as well as the content which you upload through a console, while with cPanel and DirectAdmin, you'll have a graphical interface to control everything related to your web content, and also the majority of server-side settings. Of course, if you get a dedicated server devoid of Control Panel, you can always set up some third-party software tool manually, as long as it supports the Operating System that you have selected at registration. When you select our Hepsia Control Panel from your order page, you will have restricted root access, however you will still be able to do many different things through a Secure Shell console.
