Task 1: Log into linux
- ssh -i file.pem user@ipaddress

Task 2: Create users
sudo useradd <username> = add user with username
sudo passwd <username> (will need to enter password twice) = 
    - when entering a PW, linux will not show anything
sudo cat /etc/passwd | cut -d: -f1 = This will tell you if you have done it right as user should show with this command

Task 3: Create groups
sudo groupadd <groupname> = create group with <groupname>
cat /etc/groupadd = find <groupname>:x:NUMBER
sudo usermod -a -G <groupname> <username>
cat /etc/groupadd = new check should show <groupname>:x:Number:<username>
su <username>, then enter password
touch myfile.txt = Permission denied
sudo touch myfile.txt, then enter password = error stating <username> is not a sudoer and this will be reported
exit
sudo cat /var/log/secure = report can be seen
