    If you create /root/cpanel3-skel/ the contents of it should automatically be copied into a user's directory on new account creation.

    That being said, putting a symlink into here to /root won't work due to permissions. If you changed those permissions, you would create a way for users to steal information that should only be available to root (mysql passwords, accesshashes, etc)
