highking Posted December 10, 2003 Report Share Posted December 10, 2003 (edited) Hi, I'm trying to set up a Samba fileserver, using some documentation from IBM on that topic. Now they want me to create a group, using the "group"-command. But it doesn't seem to exist on my Mandrake 9.2 box (download edition). I've tried typing "urpmi group" but that didn't seem to understand what the * I was talking about :P Is there a way to install this command? Or is there another way to add groups from bash? I cannot do this from the graphical interface, since that won't run with the secure kernel ---- EDIT ---- I've tried it typing the command "groupadd" instead of "group" and it seems to work O.K. :) So I think I've found the solution myself (damn I'm good :P) ---- Another edit ---- Is there a way to see if the groups indeed were added? (Lets ask another question, so I did not open a topic for no reason after all :D ) Edited December 10, 2003 by highking Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Qchem Posted December 10, 2003 Report Share Posted December 10, 2003 Look in /etc/group ??? Not entirely sure what you're asking any more.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mdg Posted December 10, 2003 Report Share Posted December 10, 2003 groups john shows me what group user "john" belongs to. Or you can look in /etc/group, as Qchem said, which will show all groups Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
