Feeling Ignorant about permissions and groups.
Okay.... I've been using Linux long enough. I need to have at least a more-than-rudimentary understanding of permissions, groups, and such. So here's where I need to start (mostly because I'm working on setting up a Samba server and want to manage the users via a group).
In CLI, how do you go about managing groups? Creating new ones, adding/removing users from them, and setting permissions? Where is this information stored? I'd like to have a group for samba users and just manage permissions that way. Using a Gentoo box, if that makes much difference.
Anyone feel like helping the ignorant one?
