mysql

[Aaron Howell]

Its
usermod -G group1,group2,group3 -g defaultgroup username
e.g, you have a user fred, you want him to have a default group of fred, but also to be in the wheel, mysql and games group
usermod -G wheel,games,mysql -g fred fred
Note, that's usermod *not* useradd, because the user already exists.
You should typically have a single mysql user though that is only in the mysql group for security reasons.
Rather than running it as some other user.
