If I want to add my normal user (westk) to the
dialout group, I know I can (as root) edit the
/etc/group file and add westk to the end of the
dialout line. However, I then have to log out (and
shut down vmware and NT-on-vmware) and shut down
X, etc, then log back in and fire everything back
up in order to get the change to take affect. Is
there any way I can get the change to take affect
without logging out/logging back in?

Thanks!
