Mastering User Management and Permissions on Ubuntu
Imagine a well-organized office building where access is granted based on roles and responsibilities – that’s the essence of user management and permissions on Ubuntu. By creating user accounts, assigning them to appropriate groups, and meticulously defining permissions, you establish a secure and controlled environment for system usage. This article delves into the core concepts of user management and permissions in Ubuntu. You’ll explore user creation, modification, and deletion, understand the role of groups, and master the art of setting permissions using commands like adduser, usermod, groups, chmod, and chown.

First, install and configure Ghost as though its running on localhost. I do this in its own FreeBSD jail, and with a ghost user, so node doesn’t spray stuff everywhere.
