[baong]

Hi All,
I like to create a user account with the ability to create new user account just like root account can do everything (e.g;, root)
If anyone can give me some input here. I really appreciate it.

hi,

use sudo / su - / just change his UID = 0.


sudo is good

su - if you trust ther people that know the root pass

UID=0 for other users, securoty risk.

Talk to your UNIX Administrator to get those privileges.

With sudo you can list the various commands the user can use with root privilege. e.g. you can explicitly define that the user can only run the /usr/sbin/useradd command, and nothing else.

# man sudoers

creating multiple root/admin users is probably something familiar to windows systems, but on unix you should never have to do things like these. see all alternatives mentioned above.
