DEVOS
Active Directory Groups
Once you have added a domain, you may then add Groups. For example, if you have
an AD group called "Devos", select Add New Group, type in "Devos", and save. You
can edit or delete any group.
To add all users in a domain, in most
cases you can use key word "Domain
Users".
DEVOS parses deep into groups and
will add all subgroups. For
example, if you have a structure
"one:two:three:four:five", and add
it as group "one", then all users in
group two, three, four, five will be included; if you add group "two" then group
two, three, four, and five will be included, etc. Providing granular group
definitions in your Active Directory can be useful because it can allow DEVOS
Security Groups to achieve granular user group access. For example, if you
create a group called "Mr. Jones" and populate it only with members that belong
to Mr. Jones', then that group can become a unique security group in DEVOS.
When you create or edit a Group, you may
assign default privileges. This feature gives
all members of that Group the desired
privileges without your needing to edit each
users manually.
