appropriately

** Description changed:

- 
  Ubuntu uses private user groups.
  
  In order for the users to belong be added to the users group by default
- /etc/security/groups needs to contain a line like this one:
+ two solutions exist.
  
+ 1)
+  centrally add one line to /etc/security/group.conf (for dynamic addition to 
the group during login): 
  *;   *;   *;   Al0000-2400;   users
  
+ 2) change group membership off all existing users manually/scripted and
+ modifying adduser defaults for new users to have them added to the users
+ group.
  
- (Context is also Bug #252351)
+ There should be no security risk involved, because the users group has
+ not been used in the past.
+ 
+ The users group is generally used as a group refering to all users to
+ make the user private group scheme work as designed.
