Adding Groups

A group combines users into a unit with common rules and permissions. To
create a group, choose

User/Group | Add Group

. The Add Group window

appears:

1. Enter a

group name

: maximum of 16 characters. The characters must be

alphanumeric, underscore (_), or a hyphen (-). The name cannot start with a
digit.

2. Enter a

group ID

or let NewsShare NAS assign a group ID. A Group ID is

required. Valid IDs are (500 through 65533). If the entered or assigned
number is already assigned to a local, NIS, or PDC group, the add command
fails. Use the User/Group List window to locate free IDs.

3. (Optional) To add a user to a group, from the list of available users on the

left, click on the

user name

for the user. The list on the right shows the users currently in the group.
Repeat this step for each user you want in the group.

4. (Optional) To remove a user, click on the

user name

in the list on the right.

Click
