Sorry, I did read that, but I'm still not clear on the
answer to my question. I understand that I can give a
group access like the example, but the example does
not list groups as being a member of a group, which I
guess it what my question really is - can a group be a
member of another group?
I'm not very familiar with the workings of the
/etc/group file and whether or not it can do this
either. I didn't see any info about that in 'man
group'.
Thanks.
