debian-sys-maint user rights

[roelp]

Hello,

Can anyone tell me what rights the debian-sys-maint needs on Debian? For some reason this user wasn't created during setup, which is causing some error messages now. i already created the user with INSERT INTO user (host,User,Password,Reload_priv,Shutdown_priv) VALUES ('localhost','debian-sys-maint',PASSWORD('***'),'Y','Y');
but i would like to be sure if this is correct, or missing something

Here's mine:

INSERT INTO `user` VALUES ('localhost', 'debian-sys-maint', '*****', 'Y', 'Y', 'Y', 'Y', 'Y', 'Y', 'Y', 'Y', 'Y', 'Y', 'Y', 'Y', 'Y', 'Y', 'Y', 'Y', 'Y', 'Y', 'Y', 'Y', 'Y', '', '', '', '', 0, 0, 0);

Don't forget to flush privileges.

i think that's a bit too much. for now, everything seems working with only Shutdown_priv, Reload_priv and Super_priv granted
