Hi,

I assume, that you mean unix group?
The first group of each user is in /etc/passwd. A user is added to a new group by adding him in /etc/group in the sprecific group. New groups are added with addgroup. The primary group of a user can be changed by newgroup

hth,

As our friend in the prior post has mentioned, I am just listing the same from his post for your ref below, which is
