Hello Mohammad,

The "useradd" command creates a new user account. If you're trying to
add an existing user to a group, you'll want the usermod command. For
example,

usermod -a -G snort markjx

the previous command adds the user "markjx" to the group "snort".

This is just Linux admin and isn't specific to CentOS, or anything
else. In fact, it probably works under FreeBSD as well.

Thanks,

MJ
