Managing user groups using the CLI

All users must belong to at least one group. Only an administrator user can add a
new user account to the system, but any user can grant an existing user
membership in a group to which the granting user belongs.
By default, the administrator user is a member of all three built-in groups (admin,
oper, certadmin) and can therefore add a new user to any of these groups.
However, a certificate administrator, who is a member of the certadmin group
only, can add an existing user to the certadmin group only.
If a user belongs to only one group and you want to change the user's group
membership, add the user to the new group first, and then remove the user from
the old one.
