AFAICT the correct filename is the singular form group not groups (e.g. see & see).

Rather than just correcting the filename in place I'm adding the correct form because when even official Red Hat documentation sometimes gets it wrong, maybe one day someone will get lucky with the misspelling.

AFAICT the correct filename is the singular form `group` not `groups` (e.g. [see](https://access.redhat.com/documentation/en-US/Red_Hat_Enterprise_Linux/4/html/Introduction_To_System_Administration/s3-acctspgrps-group.html) & [see](https://linux.die.net/man/5/group)).

Rather than just correcting the filename in place I'm adding the correct form because when even [official Red Hat documentation](https://access.redhat.com/documentation/en-us/red_hat_enterprise_linux/7/html/7.3_release_notes/bug_fixes_authentication_and_interoperability#idm140113937457168) sometimes gets it wrong, maybe one day someone will get lucky with the misspelling.
