User shown as a member of deleted group

0

In my ubuntu distro,

members user1

returns

group1: group2

Now, i gave

delgroup group1

& it is done successfully... second time gave command,

members user1

returns

group1: group2

why does members command list deleted groups?

Well, by issuing members user1 you're asking for members of group user1, so I would suspect that group1 and group2 are usernames as well as group names. What does members group1 and members group2 say? – Enbyted – 2015-02-01T08:52:03.853
