I was just wondering about what do you do, when you gain root. and I mean I wanna know EVERYTHING. If you reply to flame me about this I'll assume you don't know **** about anything. I want to know what you can do as ROOT.

That's pretty brave of you to come on here as a new member and accuse someone who chooses not to help you of not knowing '****' as you put it. Let me first say that asking dumbass questions like this will get you absolutely nowhere at AO - further, there are all kinds of members on this board - everyone from older, experienced IT professionals to younger users who are trying to learn everything they can. There are people from other countries, people who work in the IT industry, people who work for the government, and people who read up on computer security as a hobby.
You say you are doing your fair share of reading and such but you don't even know what you could do with root access? Take some time to actually read some manuals and texts, then if you have an intelligent question and your account isn't litered with negative antipoints, come back and discuss topics with everyone here - don't expect anyone to lead you through learning computer security, holding your hand the entire way. That's just not how it works..
