When I say root access I mean for a virtual server. That is, servers that are either run in a FreeBSD jail or User Mode Linux environment. I have seen a few providers doing this. On shared hosting box, no: root is not going to be allowed. To clarify, these boxes are still technically "shared", but each account is given its own chroot.
