groups in linux | create , modify and delete groups | types of groups | remove & add user to a group

[@stevesan1539]

Thank u for this excellent video bro. That was so easy to understand everything about groups. Only one thing I want to add and that is while giving examples try to give different names for groups and users instead of user1,2,3 and group 1,2,3 which is a little confusing .But overall the way you teach is very informative and exhaustive. Thank u once again.

Thanks for video. How do you delete both group and primary user from Ubuntu without having to move primary user to another group?

[@PedagogyV]

I think , both the operations (deleting group and deleting primary user ) are different tasks. So , I am not sure that whether a single command can do it or not.

[@perfecteer]

@@PedagogyV okay, you cannot delete a group that have a primary user right? If you don’t have need for a group and the primary user in the group, how do you delete them?

[@PedagogyV]

@@perfecteer you will have to first delete primary user's account and then delete group.
Anyway , for making any changes you can edit your /etc/group file. In there, you will see list of groups and its users.
You can delete entire entry of group , or remove any particular user from a group.
You may try that.

[@sujeetkumarsingh5064]

Hi, how will you delete a user from a group in hp-ux. i want to remove a user from a group called grp5
as of now:
groups virat
grp1 grp2 grp3 grp4 grp5
expected result:
groups virat
grp1 grp2 grp3 grp4
sudo gpasswd grp5 -d virat
sudo: gpasswd: command not found

[@PedagogyV]

you will probably need to install gpasswd coomand . or to delete you can delete entry from /etc/group file . simply open the file , go to grp5 entry and remove that user. you can also use deluser command as
deluser user grp5

@@PedagogyV Unfortunately, I agree with him. And I don't want to be rude at all - great work! But may I suggest a bit of constructive critique? Less of "okay": hearing it every 4-8 seconds is really annoying and distracting and doesn't help in digesting the info. Thanks for the video!

@@marlanivanovich1828 Thanks for the feedback , all feedbacks are taken positively. In later videos , you will not see this in common . As we move forward , the quality and speech keeps on improving . still learning 😃
