taking away admin rights using cli command doesn't work
See original GitHub issueI ran
sudo dscl . -delete /Groups/admin GroupMembership myaccount
rebooted
but when I open the shell I can still run sudo su -
and when I look at the myaccount user it is still listed as Admin in the Users & groups config
and id myaccount shows up with
uid=501(myaccount) gid=20(staff) groups=20(staff),12(everyone),61(localaccounts),79(_appserverusr),80(admin),81(_appserveradm),98(_lpadmin),701(com.apple.sharepoint.group.1),33(_appstore),100(_lpoperator),204(_developer),395(com.apple.access_ftp),398(com.apple.access_screensharing),399(com.apple.access_ssh)

Turns out I’m still in the group because my UUID is still in the group
This command really removed me from the admin group:
Sudo no longer works, and I’m shown as a Standard user in the Users & Groups settings panel.
So you might have to add this command to your guide.
