Having root-level access to a server means that you can view and update any file on it, which includes essential system files. You may also set up software which can modify particular settings on the server throughout the, so that the installation can be done only if you are signed in as the root user. The aforementioned has full privileges, i.e. you will have full control over your machine whenever you want and you'll be able to do anything you need. You can also generate various other users either with similar rights or with fewer rights, according to what you need them for - day-to-day tasks, other server admins, etc. To be on the safe side, it's generally recommended to employ the root account only when you really need it and not for tasks that can be done using other accounts. You can use a web-based graphical interface or a Secure Shell console to be able to connect to the server and to control it at the root level.

Full Root-level Access in VPS Hosting

Our Linux VPS hosting include 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 will need the server for. When you obtain a VPS with no Control Panel, you'll have full root-level access and you'll manage everything through a console, unless you set up some third-party tool. The servers which are ordered with the DirectAdmin or the cPanel website hosting Control Panel also include full root access, yet most of the things which are linked to your world-wide web content can be done through a graphical interface and not a console. You can install many different frameworks or media streaming software, for example, without a problem. If you order your virtual website hosting server with the Hepsia Control Panel, you can still use a Secure Shell console to connect, but the root access will be reduced. Yet, the Hepsia-equipped servers are the easiest to take care of.

Full Root-level Access in Dedicated Web Hosting

Each and every dedicated server that we supply includes full root-level access, if the server is ordered without a Control Panel, or with cPanel or DirectAdmin. If you would like to install and run heavy, resource-demanding applications and they have special requirements about the server software environment which cannot be fulfilled by a regular shared website hosting package, our servers will be the best solution. With no Control Panel at hand, you are able to access the server and update its settings as well as the content that you upload using a console, while with cPanel and DirectAdmin, you'll use a graphical interface to control everything related to your online content, as well as most server-side settings. Needless to say, when you get a dedicated server without a Control Panel, you can always install some third-party software instrument manually, as long as it supports the Operating System that you have chosen at signup. If you select our Hepsia Control Panel from your order page, you'll have limited root access, however you can still do quite a lot of things through a Secure Shell console.
