  • Totally different issue (not Template) but need help from LINUX master!! Please

    Posted 18 years 1 week ago
    • I know it is not Template nor Joomla question but LINUX. I've researched online so far ... there isn't any answer yet (Unless I missed it).

      And.... This forum is source of helpful and knowledgeable people.

      Here is what i need help with:

      1. How to add an existing user to another group without losing current group membership. (I need bash command line (I have root access)

      For example: John is belong to Manager group and I like John to have membership to Accounting Group as well(which already exists) without losing his Manager group membership.

      Help is appreciated!!!

      Thank You

    • or the safe way to do it from the commandline:

      [me@mylinuxbox]#usermod -G groupname username

      check your groups with groups

      [me@mylinuxbox]#groups

      group1 group2
