Working with Member Settings for Groups
In Workgroup Manager, use the Members pane for a group to view, add, or remove
group members.
When a user name in the Members list appears in italics, the group is the user’s primary
group.
Adding Users or Groups to a Group
When you want multiple users or groups to have the same file permissions, or when
you want to apply the same management settings to all users or groups, add the users
or groups to a group.
After assigning a user to a primary group, you don’t need to add the user to that group.
However, you must specifically add users to other groups.
You can use Workgroup Manager to add a user to a group if the user and group
accounts are in an Open Directory domain or the local directory domain. Although
some group information doesn’t apply to Windows users, you can also add Windows
users to groups you create.
Mac OS X Server v10.5 and later supports hierarchical groups—groups composed of
nested groups. By managing preferences for a parent group, child groups also receive
these managed preferences. For more information, see “Understanding Hierarchical
Preference Management” on page 159.
To add a user to a group using Workgroup Manager:
1 In Workgroup Manager, click Accounts.
2 Select the group account you want to work with.
To select an account, click the globe icon, choose the directory domain where the
account resides, click the Groups button, and then select the group.
