Having full root-level access means that you'll be able to access and customize any file on a selected server, which includes all of the system files, and to change system settings or install server-side software that may be needed by specific scripts and even offline applications in order to work properly. A server is accessed at the root level through a root user, who has full privileges to perform all the aforementioned tasks. Your root user can also make other users. For security reasons, you are advised to have another account for routine tasks and to use the root account only if you actually need to do some task on the website hosting server. The root-level access function will give you full control over your server from any location, given that you know the user credentials.

Full Root-level Access in Dedicated Web Hosting

Each dedicated server that we provide includes full root-level access, when the server is ordered with no Control Panel, or with cPanel. If you wish to set up and run heavy, resource-demanding applications and they have specific requirements about the server software environment which cannot be fulfilled by an ordinary shared website hosting plan, our servers will be the perfect solution. Without Control Panel at hand, you're able to access the server and update its settings as well as the content that you upload with a console, while with cPanel you'll have a graphical interface to take care of everything related to your web content, as well as most server-side settings. Of course, when you get a dedicated server with no Control Panel, you can set up a third-party tool manually, as long as it is compatible with the OS that you have selected at registration. When you select our Hepsia Control Panel on the order page, you will have limited root access, however you will still be able to perform a number of things through a Secure Shell console.
