Hi all, I come from RH/FC. I notice that in Suse, when we create user it's upg would be "users" and not him/her. Why is that? Do you have any url I can read on? Thanks.
I have no knowledge of the official reason but to me it always seemed redundant for create a group specific to a user. It always seemed more useful to have a ready made group for all your users to fit into. Perhaps this is just because I tend to use SuSE in production environments where the vast majority of users tend to need the same things and have access to the same things. In this case configuring the group "users" is sufficient in almost all cases to grant access to those things. That leave only the special cases to deal with for restricted access to special resources for specific people. -- _____________________________________ John Andersen
