Sounds like "root" (at the Unix level) doesn't correspond with
an RT SuperUser. This is getting somewhat hairy, just to fix a
simple sounding problem :-)

Make sure (in the WebUI) that, under Configuration->Users->root,
the "Unix login" field shows "root". Make sure, also, that
the "Let this user be granted rights" box is checked. You haven't
toggled root's "SuperUser" status in the DB, by any chance?

Hmm. All this just to find out the permissions.... maybe it'd be
easier just to ask the DB directly...
