I would like to create 02 user group which are groupA and groupB

There 05 users belong to 02 group above:
user01, user02 belong to group A
user03, user04 belong to group B
user05 belong to both group A and group B.

# adduser -g groupA user01
# adduser -g groupA user02
# adduser -g groupB user03
# adduser -g groupB user04
# adduser -g groupA -G groupB user05

YaST, Security and Users, User Management.

Is there any GUI Interfaces to do the above thing, like windows 2000?
The command to create user look like too complicated for me...and in
case there are 50 user and 10 group, it would be hard to manage it...

Scripting would be my answer, but SUSE has YaST if you want a GUI.

Scripting is easy. Add the following in a file and do `sh file`
#!/bin/bash
groupadd groepA
groupadd groepB
adduser -g groupA user01
adduser -g groupA user02
adduser -g groupB user03
adduser -g groupB user04
adduser -g groupA -G groupB user05

I fauil to see any reason to do that, but whatever. :-D
