Do I Get Root Access To My Web Server?

Root is the administrative user that must be reached for editing your files placed on the server. Root access can also be used for installing and uninstalling programs on your server.

Yes, it is possible to get root access to your web server but unlike many other features and facilities, this one can prove to be a bit tough and challenging. You can get root access to your web server but it is not easy.

As users with root access can do virtually anything they want with the system, there are restrictions placed on its access. Most hosting services require uses to accept Root Access Disclosures before access is granted to the servers.

Log into to the AMP or Account Management Panel, find the Root Access icon and click on it. Next , click on the root password. Your new root password will be available in a few moments.
