After editing /etc/group, How this update starts functioning without restarting the system in Unix?Is there any command we need to run?
how to initialize `/etc/group`?
shell;permissions;group
Any changes to /etc/group will be made immediately.That file is parsed when looking for access.If you are trying to modify membership for a user already logged in though, that user may need to log out and back in for the membership changes to take effect.
