I have a user user1 that belongs to group1 as primary group, but I need this user to have read/write access to a folder that belongs to group2.



I tried adding a secondary group to this user so it now belongs to group1 as primary group and group2 as secondary group but I still don't have access to the folder.



I used this command to add the primary group usermod -g group1 user1 and this one to add the secondary group usermod -a -G group2 user1



This are my folders permissions:




drwxr-xr-x 8 owner group1 4096 jun 5 10:26 ./
drwxr-xr-x 6 owner owner 4096 jun 5 10:03 ../
drwxrwx--- 14 owner group1 4096 jun 5 11:12 folder1
drwxrwx--- 5 owner group1 4096 may 24 11:32 folder2
drwxrwx--- 13 owner group2 4096 jun 5 10:29 folder3
drwxrwx--- 3 owner group2 4096 jun 5 10:26 folder4
drwxrwx--- 8 owner group2 4096 jun 5 10:25 folder5
drwxrwx--- 6 owner group1 4096 jun 2 09:19 folder6


Can you help me solve this problem please?

          If I understand correctly (but it's confusing) I think you've to approach this the other way around. If I understand you correctly you tried to add a group to an user.
          What would work is adding the user to a group.
          If you want user1 to have access to folders/ files of group 2, do:



          sudo adduser user1 group2

          Thanks to KamilMaciorowski for the answer I need to modify the smb.conf file and add the new group in order to be able to have access.



          I modify it this way:



          [PEI]
          browsable = yes
          path = smb/dir
          guest ok = no
          guest only = no
          create mask = 0770
          directory mask = 0770
          write list = @group1, @group2
          read list =
          valid users = @group1, @group2
          read only = no
