Hello, I have a fresh Debian 1.3 minimal installation, just the base packages and two or three more. As root I do
# addgroup user-name dialout --> user user-name added to group dialout # addgroup user-name dip --> user user-name added to group dip After this, /etc/group is ok, with user-name added where appropriate. However, when user-name logs in and types "groups" he gets, $ groups user-name dialout Where is dip? In fact, I tested by adding user-name to more groups but to my surprise "groups" always returns the same two groups! I want user-name to have access to some utilities and I want to control this by adding him to several groups. But this doesn't work. Not only the "groups" command doesn't see the extra groups, but user-name is refused access to the utilities he is suppose to have access to. Any ideas? Can anybody try this out to see what you get? Thank you, P. Sanchez ---------- -- TO UNSUBSCRIBE FROM THIS MAILING LIST: e-mail the word "unsubscribe" to [EMAIL PROTECTED] . Trouble? e-mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] .
