Assign each user shared folder access, application permissions, storage quotas, or access speed limits. Grant access privileges to individual users or groups. Administrative delegation allows you to assign management duties to users or groups that do not have administrator rights. Task specific users with managing user accounts, shared folders, or system services, or assign system monitoring duties.
