Hi There
If I want to add someone to a group in Ubuntu 12.04 (and most other
linuxes) I type
addgroup geoff audio
To add myself to the audio group.
Now if in a terminal I type "groups", it shows up the groups I am in... but
not the new group until I log out and back in again... or reboot.
Does anyone know of a way that I can add myself to a group to save having
to logout? So the group membership shows up straight away. If I have to
type some other command to refresh things it doesn't worry me.
