I know you can use "usermod" on RedHat Linux to add a user to another
group by typing:
usermod -G sam,frank steve
This would effectively add steve to the "frank" and "sam" group. How do
you remove them from those groups without editing the /etc/group file
manually? I can do:
usermod -G steve steve
That will remove him from "sam" and "frank" groups but would add steve to
his own group so the /etc/group file would look like:
steve:x:590:steve
instead of just:
steve:x:590:
For the life of me, I can't figure this one out. Does anybody know?
try the gpasswd command. Example:
adding user:
gpasswd -a sam steve
deleting user:
gpasswd -d sam steve
simple isn't it? it's writing both /etc/group and /etc/gpasswd file
Thanks. I will look into this.
