Nf-ID: #1:  What type of business/company do you work at?
Nf-From: #2:  How many people have "root" access at your site?

#4:  What do they use this access for?

#5:  Other info:  do you have separate administrative passwords, or
     other pseudo-root logins, and how are they implemented, etc.

Everyone's site is different, but I would like to collect information on
a lot of different sites to compare and make some decisions about my own.
Currently at my site there is discussion about who should have root access
and why, and a volume of answers to the above questions will help us see
how things work elsewhere.

Please EMAIL all responses to me at the addresses below.  If you want a
summary or would like to see one posted, let me know.
