Module Six - Session 19: How can we add more Users and Groups?

What will I be learning?

We will learn how to add and delete users in Linux. There are GUI utilities that can do this, but doing it by the CLI is always easier (I feel). We will also learn how to change user information and maintain the date on our Linux system.

After this chapter I should be able to...

Add new users and groups. You should also be able to delete users and groups. You should also feel comfortable with modifying user and group settings.

What should I practice?

As this section is more about configurations there will not be many videos, but more reading. Please look through the links.
