Wheelgroup User

If you want a new user to be able at some point to change to rootuser you need to specify a new user to be a member of a wheelgroup.

Under LINUX use useradd command followed by login name.
Such as: useradd < login name >

Then you need to assign password to a new user:
passwd < login name >

If you want a new user to be able to change to rootuser you need to manually add him to wheelgroup.
usermod -G wheel < login name >
