User Groups

[root66]

Hello,

I intend to have several public folders for our departments. Ideally I would assign the access rights to these folders by user-groups I created in the Administration Console. How is that possible?

I tried this:

Code: Select all

$> omaddacln -t bb -l 1 -g "GroupName" -c see
omaddacln: [OM 15880] Unrecognized group.


Any suggestions?

Unfortunately, the current release of Scalix cannot use user-defined groups in ACLs; the -g option of the ACL commands only refers to the three built-in groups default, admins and local, meaning everybody, all users on the local server and all users with full administrator permissions.

As a workaround, you can write a little script that goes through group membership using omshowpdln and then sets up permissions for every member of the group.

A future Scalix release will allow for permissions based on user-defined groups.

Cheers,
Florian
