Step 1. Login as root user.

Step 2. Use an editor, such as vi, to add the vsadmin group to the /etc/group file. This file must contain a line entry for each group recognized by the system. The format of each entry is:

groupname:password:gid:[user-list]

where:

Option

Description

 

 

groupname

Name of the group.

 

 

password

Encrypted group password or * if no

 

password.

 

 

gid

Group’s numerical identifier within the

 

system; it must be unique.

 

 

user-list

Comma-separated list of users allowed

 

in the group.

 

 

The newly created line should look similar to the following example.

vsadmin:*:11:vsadm

For example, if the eleventh group id is not assigned, it should be placed as the 11th line entry in the file so that its gid is in numerical order with the other entries

1-8
