Thanks for that Nancy. I don't see ByRole as my primary issue
necessarily, more I'm afraid it's symptomatic of the real issue that
perhaps sharing the user/1 account is the only sensible thing to do
prior to Drupal 7 where there actually is an admin role.

I don't really recommend it, but on every site I've worked on with

multiple top-level admins, they share the user/1 account. But, if

ByRole is your primary issue, then open a feature request with that module.

I was asked to set up multiple admin accounts on a D6 site and

created new users and gave them all the permissions available on the

perm matrix. However not only is this a bit cumbersome and error

prone, especially with multiple administrators :-) it also appears to

not always work; ie. I've just realized that the view/edit

permissions checkboxes provided on node edits by the node privacy

byrole module is only available to user 1 and not my other admin account.

Is there a recommended workaround, short of when we eventually upgrade to D7?
