If you have root-level access to a server, it indicates that you'll have full control over it. That is to say, you can set up any server-side app irrespective of the changes that it'll make to the software setting on your server, and you will be able to both access and update any file, which includes system files, and change any settings. You can do this by connecting to the server as a root user which has full privileges to perform all these things and also to make other users, which includes users who also have full privileges. This connection can be established with a web-based graphical interface or a Secure Shell console. For security reasons, it is recommended that you create another user for your everyday work and employ the root user only when you have to modify the server or to set up software which may be needed by a script-driven app that you would like to run.

Full Root-level Access in Dedicated Servers

You will have full root-level access to your dedicated server no matter which package you choose throughout the registration process, as long as the server is ordered with cPanel or DirectAdmin, or with no hosting Control Panel at all. In all of these three cases, you will be able to modify any part of the software environment in any way you see fit, that makes our server packages perfect for resource-demanding applications with specific requirements that can't be covered if you use a shared website hosting account. The difference between these options is that using cPanel or DirectAdmin, you'll have a web-based graphical interface to take care of various server-side options and also any website content which you create or upload, while when you order the server without a Control Panel, you will have to perform everything with a Secure Shell console or to install a Control Panel of your liking, provided that it's compatible with the Operating System that you've selected throughout the registration process. With the final Control Panel option which you're able to select on the order page - Hepsia, the root access is limited.
