Having root-level access to a server signifies that you will be able to view and update any file on it, which includes crucial system files. You may also install software which can change specific 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, which means that you'll have full control over the machine at any time and you can perform anything you want. You can also make additional users either with the same rights or with fewer rights, based on what you require them for - everyday tasks, other server admins, etc. To be on the safe side, it's usually recommended to employ 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 Dedicated Servers

Each and every dedicated server that we supply gives you full root-level access, when the server is ordered with no Control Panel, or with cPanel or DirectAdmin. If you'd like to set up and run heavy, resource-demanding apps and they have specific requirements about the server software setting that cannot be fulfilled by a regular shared website hosting plan, our servers will be the perfect solution. Without any Control Panel at hand, you're able to access the server and modify its settings as well as the content which you upload through a console, whereas with cPanel and DirectAdmin, you'll use a graphical interface to control everything related to your online content, and also the majority of server-side settings. As expected, if you get a dedicated server devoid of Control Panel, you can always set up a third-party software tool manually, as long as it supports the Operating System that you have chosen at registration. If you select our Hepsia Control Panel from the order page, you'll have limited root access, yet you'll still be able to do quite a lot of things using a Secure Shell console.
