 Hello, today we're going to be looking at what groups a user is in and how to add that user to other groups. Let's dive right in. Okay, this is going to be a simple and short video. To see what groups your current user is in, you just type in groups and it will list all the groups this user is in. I'm in my user group, Metalux 1000. I'm in the printer group where I can print, dial out, that's mainly to communicate with serial devices, pseudo. I also can access files in the web directories, plug device allows me to access mount drives without having to type a password or be pseudo, KVM has to do with virtual machines. We have pulse audio stuff here. Now how do I add my current user to a group? So for that you're going to need to be root or pseudo. The command is usermod-a for add and then we're going to say dash capital G for the group and then we can list a couple of groups like blah, blah, blah with commas such as that. I'm going to add myself to the LP admin group. So currently I'm allowed to print but I'm not allowed to manage the printers. Adding myself to this group will allow me to do that. So we say pseudo usermod-a to add dash capital G, then the name of the group, you can put multiple groups with commas in between each one and then the user you want to add in my case, Metalux 1000. I'll go ahead and hit enter. If you normally would have to type a username and password or not username and password but just password because we are using a pseudo command. I've recently done that so it's still active and that's it. But it doesn't take place right away. When you add a user group that user has to log out and log back in for that take effect. If I run groups now you can see that it's not listed there but if I was to log out and log back in you would see that group there and then I would be part of the printer management or admin group. So that's it. Short video. Thanks for watching. Visit filmsbychrist.com. That's Chris the K. As always I hope that you have a great day.
