Happy Thanksgiving Everyone!! I have a question about adding users to multiple groups. Thanks in advance
Using Red Hat and here are the issues:
Example:
Users:
Bob
Mark
Groups:
SystemsAnalysts
BusinessAnalysts
If I am adding a user Bob to both groups (SystemsAnalysts and BusinessAnalysts)
Seems to be removing the user Bob from SystemsAnalysts group when I add the user Bob to the BusinessAnalysts group.
Is there a limit of groups a user can be in(assuming no)? Or any ideas why I am running into this issue. The only thing I can think of is maybe it has to do with the directory permissions and the group owner of the directory permissions??? Any help would be greatly appreciated!!
