Admin Permissions

How do you automatically specify administrator permissions? If you set someone Admin through vB it gives them very limited permission (which is good), however when I set someones usergroup to 6 using a query they have full access. So I would like to know how I would go about doing this.

Thanks

quey table administrator and alter 'adminpermissions' field, 65532 is full permissions, this is in init.php for bitfields:

// field names for administrative permissions
$_BITFIELD['usergroup']['adminpermissions'] = array(
'ismoderator' => 1,
'cancontrolpanel' => 2,
'canadminsettings' => 4,
'canadminstyles' => 8,
'canadminlanguages' => 16,
'canadminforums' => 32,
'canadminthreads' => 64,
'canadmincalendars' => 128,
'canadminusers' => 256,
'canadminpermissions' => 512,
'canadminfaq' => 1024,
'canadminimages' => 2048,
'canadminbbcodes' => 4096,
'canadmincron' => 8192,
'canadminmaintain' => 16384,
'canadminupgrade' => 32768
);

oh I just copied the number 65532 from my localhost, so that means I am not a moderator and cannot control panel, don't know why it misses the number 2 ?
