5 Setting Up Group Accounts

A group account offers a simple way to manage a

collection of users with similar needs. This chapter tells

you how to set up and manage group accounts.

About Group Accounts

Group accounts store the identities of users who belong to the group as well as

information that lets you customize the working environment for members of a group.

When you define preferences for a group, the group is known as a workgroup.

A primary group is the user’s default group. Primary groups can expedite the checking

done by the Mac OS X file system when a user accesses a file.

Administering Group Accounts

This section describes how to administer group accounts stored in various kinds of

directory domains.

Where Group Accounts Are Stored

Group accounts, as well as user accounts and computer lists, can be stored in any Open

Directory domain. A directory domain can reside on a Mac OS X computer (for

example, the LDAP directory of an Open Directory master or a NetInfo domain) or it

can reside on a non-Apple server (for example, an LDAP or Active Directory server).

You can use Workgroup Manager to work with accounts in all kinds of directory

domains. For complete information about the different kinds of Open Directory

domains, see the Open Directory administration guide.

Predefined Group Accounts

The following table characterizes the group accounts that are created automatically

when you install Mac OS X Server. For a complete list, open Workgroup Manager and

choose View > Show System Users and Groups.
