/etc/group describes the groups on a system. a comma-separated list of users at the end of a particular line stands for membership of all these users in this particular group. i am sure that there are command-line utilities to do that, but then again, /etc/group is so old and so standard that you can safely do this by hand without violating some debian policy or philosophy, right? martin; (greetings from the heart of the sun.) \____ echo mailto: !#^."<*>"|tr "<*> mailto:" [EMAIL PROTECTED] -- if you want to build a ship, don't drum up people together to collect wood, and don't assign them tasks and work, but rather teach them to long for the endless immensity of the sea. -- antoine de saint exupery
