The command "sudo groupdel ${group_name}" is used to delete a group from a Linux system. Here's a breakdown of the command:
- "sudo" is used to execute the command with administrative privileges. It allows the user to perform actions as a superuser or another user with administrative rights.
- "groupdel" is the command that removes a group from the system.
- "${group_name}" is a placeholder variable that represents the name of the group you want to delete. It should be replaced with the actual name of the group you wish to remove.
