The root account on my server was accidently deleted (someone hit the delete button in webmin for the wrong account...) Luckily I have been able to re-create the account through webmin for the User ID 0 and it seems to be working. Just wanted to check if there is anything that will need to be changed or will this account work properly as is?

Oops indeed! As long as you've successfully managed to add the UID 0 root user back, with appropriate group info, I don't think you should have a problem. Good luck.
