Managing Shared Folders - US Robotics USR8700 User Manual

The selected users move from one list to the other.
On the Groups page, when you select this group in the Groups list, the adjacent Members list imme-
diately reflects the changes you just made.
Removing a Group
Removing a group does not remove the users that are members of that group; it simply means that the
group will no longer appear in the Groups list on the Groups page. The users remain listed on the Users
& Computers page.
However, removing a group can affect access to shared folders. When you remove a group, the members
of that group will no longer have access to any shared folders that the group was authorized to access
unless they were granted individual access as well.
For example, the Executives group might include Alice, Bob, and Carlos, and that group might have read/
write access to the Budget shared folder. If you remove the Executives group, Alice, Bob, and Carlos
remain users, but they will no longer have any access to that shared folder.
On the other hand, if the Executives group had read/write access to the Budget shared folder, but Alice
had read-only access, when you remove the group, Bob and Carlos will no longer have access to the
Budget shared folder (since their access rights were determined by their group membership), but Alice will
continue to have read-only access, since that access right was granted to her on a user level.
To remove a group:
1. In the navigation bar, click Users.
2. In the left pane, click Groups.
3. In the Groups list, select the group that you want to remove.
4. Click Remove.
5. When prompted to confirm the removal, click Yes.
The group no longer appears in the Groups list.
