       groupdel - slet en gruppe

SYNOPSIS


       groupdel [options] GROUP

BESKRIVELSE

       The groupdel command modifies the system account files, deleting all entries that refer to GROUP. The
       named group must exist.

TILVALG

       The options which apply to the groupdel command are:

       -f, --force
           This option forces the removal of the group, even if there's some user having the group as the
           primary one.

       -h, --help
           Vis hjælpeteksten og afslut.

       -R, --root CHROOT_DIR
           Apply changes in the CHROOT_DIR directory and use the configuration files from the CHROOT_DIR
           directory. Only absolute paths are supported.

       -P, --prefix PREFIX_DIR
           Apply changes in the PREFIX_DIR directory and use the configuration files from the PREFIX_DIR
           directory. This option does not chroot and is intended for preparing a cross-compilation target. Some
           limitations: NIS and LDAP users/groups are not verified. PAM authentication is using the host files.
           No SELINUX support.

CAVEATS

       De kan ikke fjerne den primære gruppe for en eksisterende bruger. Du skal fjerne brugeren før du fjerner
       gruppen.

       Du skal manuelt kontrollere alle filsystemer for at sikre dig, at ingen filer fortsat er ejet af denne
       gruppe.
