Linux for sysadmins -- checking user groups

Linux for sysadmins -- checking user groups

The Linux user and group systems allow powerful, fine-grained access control to system applications, files, and resources. It's important to know how to list and manage user and group membership.

As an example, to use VirtualBox on Linux, users must be a member of the vboxusers group.
Other applications require a user to be a member of the group dialout.
