=== Part 3: Managing Groups ===
In this section, we will learn how to create, remove and modify groups in our Linux VM. You learned in ULI101 how to change permissions with the '''chmod''' command, but you didn't have admin privileges to '''create groups''' to allow directory and regular file sharing. Since you now have admin privileges with your VM, you can now create groups, and add users to this group to allow file-sharing among users.
