how do i add another superuser account? i created a user and added him as admin, but when i look in the users table, issuperuser is set to 0 for that user.

also, whats the difference between and admin and a superuser?

thanks

Yes you can add more superuser accounts to your DNN site. 

Login as Host
Select "Superuser Accounts" from the "Host" menu
Select "Add New User"

Also aside from having administrative abilities over all portals the host (superuser) accounts have the abilities by default to upload modules, upload skins, set folder permissions, add portals, administer the scheduled tasks and other limited access functionality

If you have access to a working portal user account you could set the IsSuperUser field in their profile in the users table to 1.  That would promote them to a host.

You could also create a whole account via the databse, but that is a bit more involved....
