Linux / Unix Question?

In a UNIX system, we have two types of user accounts --each with specific levels of privileges, permissions, and power. Explain the differences between a casual user and the system administrator (called "root" or "superuser" in UNIX circles).

Linux / Unix Question?
simple root can make major system changes like updates and instalations system wide a (user) has limited access no matter what and cant do much except use the computer in a normal fassion
Reply:User...Can only access what the user was given permission to, can access anything in the users home folder, but nothing of other users (unless the user was given permission to), cannot perform system wide changes.





Root - sometimes called god mode, can access ANYTHING that is on the local (or network) computer(s), this includes all files, all drives, and can do anything. Root users can even delete all files of the operating system if they wanted to. Use sparingly.
Reply:"root" "superuser" "system(s) administrator"





Know(s) how to assign "privileges, permissions, and power" to "casual user[s]" ; they're not afraid of genuine, honest questions or answers from anyone in any particular "circle" ; however, they can be easily annoyed by questions that have already been given extensive technical documentation.
