Hello;

A superuser is a user with elevated privileges on a system.
Using the shell command su(runas), a user in a unix/nt environment may
aquire root privileges.

The SU command of OperServ does the same. It makes another ServicesRoot
from the admin who issued SU.

A ServicesRoot can use the OperServ Admin command, and debug commands,
if defined, and any other command, which has been recoded to root-only.
A ServicesRoot may do getpass on other services admins e.g.

Regards;
yusuf
