I see, there are no admins of groups by default.<br />
<br />
If you would like, you can designate admin privileges to certain groups with the gpasswd -A &lt;username&gt; &lt;groupname&gt; command. &nbsp;What kind of access will the designated admins have? Am I understanding correct?<br />
Thanks

Right, a group has no group admin by default.<br />
<br />
Generally the 'group admins' can use the gpasswd &lt;group&gt;<br />
command to set a password for the group and add or remove<br />
members<br />
<br />
using<br />
gpasswd -a user group<br />
<br />
or<br />
gpasswd -d user group<br />
<br />
respectively

I know gpasswd can be used to make a user an admin of a group, correct?<br />
<br />
gpasswd -A &lt;user name&gt; &lt;group name&gt;<br />
<br />
Is there anyway to tell who is an admin of what group?<br />
thanks
