I have modified my group file to add a new group aka "users" with a group number that is not used yet. When I try to invite a user to that group with adduser -group users -batch newuser or similar command like chgrp users somefiles, all the command fails. when I see directory list, group information is displayed as a group number. It was a normal operation modifying group file to add new group on Solaris or Linux but I think freeBSD offers different command set to add new group. Is there anybody who can enlight me?.
