The command sudo gpasswd -M ${user1,user2} ${group} is being executed with administrative privileges (using sudo). It modifies the group membership (-M) of multiple users (${user1,user2}) and assigns them to a specific group (${group}).
Here's a breakdown of the command:
sudo: This command allows a user with administrative (root) privileges to execute the following command.gpasswd: This is a command used to manage the group passwords and membership in Linux.-M ${user1,user2}: The-Mflag specifies a comma-separated list of users that should be added to or removed from the group. In this case,${user1,user2}represents multiple user names or variable values.${group}: This is the name of the group where the specified users will be added or removed. It is a variable value or a specific group name.
By executing this command, the group membership of user1 and user2 will be modified to include them in the ${group} group specified.
