I have a silly question; Does the root (group) have special privileges like the root (user)? If so, what are they? An example: The root user is able to modify any file! Is the root (group) also allowed to act as a member regardless of the current group setting? I'm asking; because I know the difference between groups and users but, was just wondering if the root group has some special privileges.
