Thanks, folks! I’ll do it as you suggest. But, with one thing learnt, other doubts raise. Thorsten, In your example about users’ groups config: root@your_machine:/etc# grep your_users group wheel:x:4:your_user floppy:x:8:your_user dialout:x:11:your_user audio:x:12:pulse,your_user video:x:13:your_user cdrom:x:16:your_user scanner:x:20:your_user network:x:21:your_user kvm:x:24:your_user users:x:100:your_user pulse-access:x:997:your_user your_user:x:1000: wireshark:x:992:your_user clamav:x:991:your_user socklog:x:989:your_user Could you explain what each group is? What they do, exactly? I’m not familiar with ‘wireshark’, ‘clamav’ and ‘soklog’ (I might say I’m no longer a newbie , but I’m still far from being experienced with ‘the guts’ of Linux systems…!); further, what are those numbers after ‘x’ in each line?...
