Creating A Group - Linksys NSS4000 Series Administrator's Manual

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 each user is assigned a primary group within their user profile.
When a user creates a file, the group ownership is automatically set to the user's primary group. The
user's storage usage is charged to the user's 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 add a group to file ACL on a CIFS share.
To create a group:
1. From the Manager Menu, click Access
The Configured Groups page appears.
2. Click Add.
