User groups are used on GNU/Linux for access control – members of a group are granted access to devices and files belonging to that group. `/etc/group` is the file that defines the groups on the system (group(5) for details).

This article provides a list of common groups and their purpose along with an overview of group manipulation commands.

## Group manipulation

### List groups

Display group membership with the `groups` command:

    $ groups [user]

If `user` is omitted, the current user's group names are displayed.

The `id` command provides additional detail, such as the user's UID and associated GIDs:

    $ id [user]

To list all groups on the system:

    $ cat /etc/group

### Find group ownership

List files owned by a group with the `find` command:

    # find / -group [group]

### Manage group membership

Add users to a group with the `gpasswd` command:

    # gpasswd -a [user] [group]

To remove users from a group:

    # gpasswd -d [user] [group]

If the user is currently logged in, they must log out and in again for the change to have effect.

### Manage groups

Create new groups with the `groupadd` command:

    # groupadd [group]

To delete existing groups:

    # groupdel [group]
