#2493: append group instead of replacing current ones ----------------------+----------------------------------------------------- Reporter: iamcalvo | Owner: [email protected] Type: defect | Status: new Priority: normal | Milestone: 6.3 Component: BOOK | Version: SVN Severity: normal | Keywords: append group instead replacing ----------------------+----------------------------------------------------- In "Setting up a Subversion Server" (http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/blfs/view/svn/server/svnserver.html) in section 1 "Setup Users, Groups, and Permissions" the command to add the svn user to the group svntest is:
usermod -G svntest svn which replaces svn user's current groups with group svntest. In my opinion it should be: usermod -G svntest -a svn which appends svntest to its groups. This change is "important" because the document is intended for multiple repositories so svn user shall be added to multiple groups. I have to say that i'm quite new to linux so i'm not sure 100% this is correct, but i have already lost my sudo privileges with this command :) a big thank you for your hard work it's very useful! -- Ticket URL: <http://wiki.linuxfromscratch.org/blfs/ticket/2493> BLFS Trac <http://wiki.linuxfromscratch.org/blfs> Beyond Linux From Scratch -- http://linuxfromscratch.org/mailman/listinfo/blfs-book FAQ: http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/blfs/faq.html Unsubscribe: See the above information page
