Create New User with the same group nd privileges of the other user

Hi,

Anyone can help me on how to duplicate privileges and group for useroradb01 to userrootdb01. I have currently using "useroradb01" and create a newly user "userrootdb01".

I want both in the sames privileges and group. Please see the existing users list below;

Code:
drwxr-xr-x 53 useroradb01 useroradb01  4.0K 2011-03-18 22:12 useroradb01
drwxr-xr-x 3  userrootdb01 userrootdb01 4.0K 2011-03-18 15:28 userrootdb01
