How can I create a user account with admin rights and not have the user login as root? I want the user to change other users passwords, unlock accounts, but I do not want the user to login as "root"
Thanks
 
This is done by assigning Authorizations to the user account. Check the System Administrator Guide, Administering user accounts. Look for the secion on Primary Authorizations, this should give you what you need
