If you have root-level access to a server, it indicates that you'll have full control over it. In other words, you'll be able install any server-side application whatever the changes that it will make to the software setting on your server, and you can both access and customize any file, which includes system files, and modify any settings. This can be done by connecting to the server as a root user who has full privileges to do all these things and also to make other users, which includes users that also have full privileges. This particular can be established through a web-based graphical interface or a Secure Shell console. For security reasons, it is recommended that you make a separate user for your daily work and employ the root user only when you have to modify the server or to install software that may be required by a script-driven application that you wish to run.
