Every users belongs to one or several groups (ex: root, admin, user, www-user, staff).
/etc/groups has the information on how much privilege each groups has. A user gets the privileges of the group(s) user belongs to. `man groups` has little detail. `info groups` details it all. Please correct me if I am wrong. Zahed On Tue, 29 Jul 2003 [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: > Does anyone know what all the groups listed in /etc/groups mean?
