      Issue description

       Description:   Section 15.3: Lab: Manage Users and Groups, Permissions, and Processes

      The step to configure "/home/dbadmin1/grading/review2 directory so that the database group owns any file or sub-directory that is created in this directory, irrespective of which user created the file. Configure the permissions on the directory to allow members of the database group to access the directory and to create contents in it. All other users should have read and execute permissions on the directory."

      It does not make sense to make a shared group directory within the dbadmin1 user's home directory. Because the users home directory is private, members of the database group and other users will not actually be able to access the directory because they do not have access to the parent directory.

      It would be best to show creating shared group directories that are not within a user home directory like this. Perhaps simply "/home/database" rather than "/home/dbadmin1/database". 

       

      Steps to reproduce:
