To ''allow'' or ''limit'' '''access''' to those<br>files and directories, those files and directories are assigned to an initial '''group''' referred to as a "'''primary group'''".
Users that <u>own</u> those ''directories'' and ''regular files'' are referred to as '''users''', users that belong within <br>the <u>same group</u> are referred to as '''same group members''', and those users are do <u>NOT</u> belong to a particular group are referred to as '''other group members'''.
'''NOTE:''' In this course, we CANNOT create groups or assign users to groups in the '''Matrix''' server.<br>Instead, you may learn how to those tasks when or if you take a Unix/Linux administration course.<br>On the other hand, you can change which '''user''', '''same group members''' or '''other group members'''<br>can access or NOT access a directory or regular file.<br><br>
