[SOLVED] systemd and groups

miro279 · 2012-10-23 21:05:39

I just switched to systemd and was wandering about a part of the wiki:

Note: Adding your user to several groups (optical, audio, scanner, ...) is not necessary with systemd. It might even break the wanted functionality if you do so.

The question is than: what groups should I be in? What about plugdev, network, networkmanager, power...

I'm in the "users" group and that's enough. None of the ones you listed should be necessary.

What about wheel which is going to be used by systemd according to the wiki??

Depends how you set sudores up, at a guess.

wormzy@sakura[pts/6]~$ groups
adm wheel users httpusers

Works for me. httpusers is a custom group for managing my webserver btw.

I have it like that now:

[miro@abraxas ~]$ groups
adm wheel locate users vboxusers miro adbusers

without vboxusers and adbusers I ran into problems. But maybe more will follow..
