particular user or group can access via the Web Server on the
NetLinx Master.

the target Master. These folder/files can be placed on the
target Master via an FTP connection to the target Master.

logical collection of users. Any properties possessed by groups (example: access rights, directory
associations, etc.) are inherited by all the members of the group.
