<<TableOfContents>>

----



== Installation ==

[[Linux]] and [[BSD]] distributions will either have `addgroup(8)` pre-installed, or direct users to instead use [[GroupAdd|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
}}}
