    Not sure why you would want that.  Root on any Nix system is a very special user, and you really only want one of em.  If you need to give other users "some" root priviliages without giving them the root password then use the command SUDO and set it up for those users.

    On Nix systems user with the UID of 0 (root) is all powerful, and this is defined by the UID of 0.
