Full Root-level Access
What does the full root-level access feature imply? What rights will it bestow you with? How to sign in to your server as root?
Having full root-level access means that you will be able to access and change any file on a selected server, including all system files, and to change system settings or install server-side software that may be necessary for certain scripts and even offline applications to function effectively. A server is accessed at the root level through a root user, which has full privileges to do all of the abovementioned tasks. Your root user may also make various other users. For security reasons, you're advised to have another account for day-to-day tasks and to use the root account only if you actually need to perform a specific task on your hosting server. The root-level access attribute will give you full control over your server from any location, given that you have the user credentials.

Full Root-level Access in VPS Servers
The
VPS web hosting service which we offer are appropriate for various purposes, depending on what you wish to set up and run on them and the experience that you have. If your hosting server is ordered with the cPanel or the DirectAdmin website hosting Control Panel, you will have full root access and will be able to manage your Internet content through a graphical interface, whereas you can still install server-side applications that may be required by your web sites and even by offline apps, such as VoIP software, media encoding software, various frameworks, and many others. Devoid of Control Panel, you'll also have full root-level access, but you'll need to do everything through a console. When you choose to use our custom-built Hepsia website hosting Control Panel, there are certain root access restrictions, but this configuration is the easiest to manage. That way, you'll be able to choose the virtual server package which you really need.

Full Root-level Access in Dedicated Servers
Each
dedicated server that we supply comes with full root-level access, if the server is ordered with no Control Panel, or with cPanel or DirectAdmin. If you want to set up and run heavy, resource-demanding apps and they have special requirements about the server software setting which cannot be fulfilled by a conventional shared web hosting plan, our servers will be the right solution. With no Control Panel at hand, you can access the server and change its settings and the content which you upload with a console, whereas with cPanel and DirectAdmin, you'll have a graphical interface to manage everything related to your online content, and also most server-side settings. Of course, when you get a dedicated server devoid of Control Panel, you may always set up a third-party instrument manually, as long as it supports the Operating System that you have selected at signup. When you pick the Hepsia Control Panel from the order page, you will have restricted root access, but you can still perform many different things through a Secure Shell console.
