I just got i9305 with TouchWiz 4.4.4 on it and Knox bootloader 0x0 (not tripped). From reading the forums, I get the impression rooting it without tripping Knox 0x1 flag is not possible.
Is this correct?

There is a not a way to do that yet. I'm sure you used Towel root to root 4.4.2 and not trip KNOX. Towel Root dose not work for 4.4.4 yet. Neither does Kingo Root, and Root De La Vega. The 4.4.4 update patches the exploit in 4.4.2. You can read through my thread here http://forum.xda-developers.com/note-3-sprint/general/samsung-note-3-rom-flashin-basics-t2896440 unless you are actually using the containerization security of KNOX, you don't need to worry about the warranty. Read about my trip to the Sprint Corporate store. Sprint will cover the warranty as long as if is not rooted when you bring it in for service, or send it back to Sprint for service. If the device is hard bricked there is no way to tell it has been rooted and they automatically replace the device.
Hello! I just had a few questions about the whole new Knox Security thing Samsung has implemented in their newer phones and firmwares. So, what are the consequences of tripping the Knox counter with rooting the device? Does it just void warranty and tell them that it's been modded? I thought I read somewhere that after tripping Knox and restoring your phone back to Samsung firmware, it no longer gets OTA updates. Is this true? Thanks guys! Please go as in depth as you can!
I installed TWRP on 5.0.2 which tripped KNOX (0x1). I just updated to 5.1.1 and the KNOX Warranty says this, KNOX WARRANTY VOID: 1 (0X000). Is my KNOX still tripped?
Edit: Should be 5.1.1 OF7 not OE7
Edit 2: Sorry, delete this thread please. I found my answer.
is there anyway to root this on 5.1.1 without tripping knox?
I am not sure but I think if you root the phone like the post http://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-s6-edge/general/howto-flash-g92xf-t-tripping-knox-t3158606 and then you upgrade to this firmware wihtout change the bootloader you can do this.
