Full Root-level Access
What does the full root-level access option entail? What benefits will it bestow you with? How to log into your server as root?
Having full root-level access signifies that you'll be able to access and modify each file on a particular server, including all system files, and to change system settings or install server-side software that may be necessary for specific scripts and even offline applications to work efficiently. A server is accessed at the root level through a root user, which has full privileges to do all of the aforementioned tasks. Your root user may also make various other users. For safety reasons, you are advised to have a different account for daily tasks and to use the root account only if you actually need to perform a particular task on your server. The root-level access feature offers you full control of your server from any location, provided that you know the user credentials.

Full Root-level Access in VPS
You're able to control your new
virtual private servers at the root level whatever the package which you have selected, as long as the server is ordered with either the cPanel or the DirectAdmin hosting Control Panel, or without Control Panel at all. In the first case, many system settings can be managed via a user-friendly web-based interface, whereas in the second, you will need to make everything via a console, unless you decide to install a Control Panel yourself. Either way, you'll have full control over the VPS and any kind of system or custom content on it at all times, which makes this type of website hosting perfect for any application that you cannot run with a shared web hosting account because of the limited degree of access - frameworks, VoIP and audio/video streaming software, and so on. The last VPS Control Panel option is Hepsia, but the root access to your server is limited.

If you get one of the
Linux dedicated hosting that we supply, you'll have full root-level access and you can do anything that you are unable to do using a shared web hosting account - to change the server-side PHP settings, to set up frameworks or media streaming software, etc. You'll be able to order the server without hosting Control Panel and do everything from a console, unless you install some third-party instrument, or you can order it with cPanel or DirectAdmin and use a web-based graphical interface to manage your Internet sites and many system settings. In all 3 cases, you'll have full control over the machine. The significant amount of resources that you'll receive makes our dedicated packages the perfect choice for any kind of content that you want to have.
