Keith,

If you are su, use the command:
# useradd -G spider sysop

If you are logged in as sysop use:
$ sudo useradd -G spider sysop

My original intent was to use the mc editor which is invoked by 
highlighting the file and pressing F4.  Then to write the finished file 
you would use Ctrl O, and then Ctrl X to exit.

Please let me know how that goes.

73, Bill
