AddGroup

addgroup(8) creates a group.

Installation

Linux and BSD distributions will either have addgroup(8) pre-installed, or direct users to instead use groupadd(8).

Usage

When using addgroup(8) in a script, it can be important to consider portability. The BusyBox implementation only supports the following short-form flags.

addgroup [-g GID] [-S] GROUP
Add a group
    -g GID    Group id
    -S        Create a system group
