Default Another user to WHM?
Is it possible to have more than one root user for WHM? With OS root rights and everything?

Yes, you have to add the user as a reseller in WHM and check the button at the bottom for "Full Root Access". You should also add the user to the wheel group as well and put them in /etc/sudoers with full access.

It doesn't seem to work. The user still has to su to root before most things can be done.

What do you mean? You should execute the command

Code:
# sudo -s
Which will cause the new user to have to input his password (again) and give him/her root access.
