In this course, Linux System Administration: User and Group Management, you'll rapidly get up to speed administrating local users and groups using Ubuntu Linux. First, you’ll create new local users and groups. Next, you’ll discover how to modify important account attributes. Finally, you’ll learn how to manage user passwords. By the end of this course, you'll have a better understanding of the fundamentals of local user management skills on Linux systems.
