Working with Groups Groups are an easy way to manage users with the same storage needs and privileges. A group consists of one or more users. You can add or remove users from a group at any time. The user's primary group (the group to which quota charges for storage usage are applied) is set up in the Primary Group field of the user's profile. A group called "nasusers" is automatically created when you first install the NSS. This group is the default primary group when you create new users. Creating a Group Groups let you specify the share access privileges for a set of users. After you create a group, you can define the group's access privileges on a per-share basis. You can add or remove users to and from the group at any time. Note that users are assigned a primary group within their user profile. When users create a file, the group ownership is automatically set to their primary group. The storage usage is charged to their primary group for the purposes of volume quota accounting. Group membership, other than the primary group, is defined in either the Add Group or Edit Group page and is used only to control access to shares and files. NOTE: You cannot grant security privileges to a group for a CIFS share through ACL. To create a group: Cisco Small Business NSS2000 Series Administration Guide 74
