BACKUP ROOT ID

[UVK_1]

There cannot be two root users in unix. As far as i know you cannot do this. The only option you have is what you have already done. create an admin user account with uid and gid 0.

No back up root users can be created. The admin for a unix box can only be root

>OldSchool: plus selecting the incorrect option when removing the user in SAM can smoke the files as well I believe.

This may be apocryphal since SAM now checks.

You are confused. Your second statement conflicts with the first.
Anyone with UID of 0 IS root. They may just have different names, home directories or shells.

i think i know what your problem is. if you really want to log in as root through ssh, you should uncomment this line in /etc/opt/ssh/sshd_config:

#PermitRootLogin yes

so just remove the hashmark at the beginning of the above mentioned line, and restart the openssh daemon like this:

#/sbin/init.d/secsh stop;/sbin/init.d/secsh start

mark that the activ ssh connections won't be affected by the restart
