that's right, karl ... and those screamingly obvious "Add User" and
"Add Group" icons at the top of the dialog panel -- gosh, they're
tricky little buggers, aren't they? one can only *guess* what
possible value *they* have.
Then I clicked on Edit and then Preferences. There I found all
the blocks with a check mark before them. So I erased all the check
marks and rebooted the thing. Now it lists ALL the Users and Groups.
You can click on one and a panel comes up and let's you join any
group you want to. It is useful.
Why does it arrive on a new load with all those things checked?
Where is help on F8? I think it is a bug.
right again, karl -- *your* lack of understanding clearly implies a
monumental design flaw in fedora. i recommend bugzilla, priority
"high", severity "critical". *that'll* teach those software
developers what's what.
good luck with that ... let us know how it works out.

Why are You RDay such an asshole? Is it your Canadian upbringing?
