I can't administrate my system without knowing each group. Help me, please. I searched for 30 minutes and now I'm bored.

Code:
adm

console
daemon
disk
floppy
ftp
games
gdm
kmem
lp
mail

nogroup
pop
root
rpc
scanner
shadow
slocate
smmsp
sshd
sys
tty
users
utmp
uucp
video
wheel
My second question is:
In which groups should a user be to burn. The group "burning" doesn't help. Thx.
So what was missing?
And where does this "burning" group come from? It's not in my install.
Hi,
I created a group called burning and used the k3bsetup program which changed the group and permissions on the three needed console burning tools. And all I got to do was add my user to the groups you told. Finished. My user was only in the group users.
