ehh.. i just tought i should add this.

please check the man files for usermod before doing issuing the usermod
command, if i remember well, either -G or -g removes the user from all other
groups <username> belongs to that are not listed on the current command, so
for instance if userme is currently in grouptest and you issue

#usermod -G wheel userme

userme will no longer be in group grouptest.

to bypass this, you'll have to do

#usermod -G wheel,grouptest userme

(i'm not absolutely certain of the command syntax and the option that is
affected like this, so please check the man file for usermod before using
it.)

Once again

Cheers

Essien
