Depending on distro and presence of any other access controls, granting them limited sudo priviledges, or adding them to the wheel group would be a much better way to do that! |
have the system admin ( the person with the root password)
add that user to the "sudoers" list and set the programs that that person needs to use what ever you do DO NOT !!!!!!!!!! make two root users DO NOT add a normal user the the root guid ( 500 or 1000) if that parson can NOT be trusted with the root password then limit what they can do using sudo |
I think you're thinking of the normal starting value for non-priv users (500 or 1000). root gid is always 0 (zero) AFAIK/IME ...
