Recipe 8.15. Adding and Deleting Group Members
8.15.1 Problem
You need to give users some group
memberships, or delete some users from groups.
8.15.2 Solution
Edit /etc/groups manually. Just copy and paste;
it's the fastest way.
8.15.3 Discussion
You may also use adduser and
usermod, but beware of sneaky gotchas:
adduser will only add a user to one group at a
time, but usermod, which allows you to list
several groups at once, will overwrite any existing group
assignments.
