If you're using tcsh shell (root's default) it can be done with alias:
# which time
time: shell built-in command.
# time -h ls
-h: Command not found.
0.000u 0.000s 0:00.00 0.0% 0+0k 0+0io 0pf+0w
# alias time /usr/bin/time
# which time
time: aliased to /usr/bin/time
# time -h ls
ports standard standard-5.3 standard-5.4
0.01s real 0.00s user 0.00s sys
To make this permanent put 'alias time...' in ~/.cshrc file.
There should be something similar in other shells, too.

Karol
