Hi,

There is :

root Userid 0
non-root Userid 1 <> 100
users Userid > 100

In fact only root will have more permissions. The rest is what you specify inside the application or with file ownership. I think you need to learn the unix basics starting at examine an "ls -l" and then understanding what is says.
