42 Part I Installation and Configuration
Group Permissions Pane Settings
You use the Group Permissions pane to choose the Mac OS X groups that can access
Final Cut Server. You also assign permission sets to each group, allowing you to control
the areas of Final Cut Server to which each group has access.
By default, the group of “admin” is added with the default “admin” permission set. If you
have already configured local groups using the Accounts pane of System Preferences or
Leopard Server Workgroup Manager, or if this server is on an Open Directory network,
you can add groups and assign permission sets. Otherwise, see Chapter 4, “
Adding
Users and Groups,” on page 47 for more information on managing Final Cut Server
users and groups.
To add a group and assign a permission set to it:
1 Click the Add (+) button.
Note: If necessary, click the lock and authenticate yourself first.
A list of groups appears.
2 Choose the group to add.
The group appears in the Group Permissions pane list.
3 Click in the Permission Set area next to the group name in the list, and choose a
permission set to assign to the group.
See “About the Customer Profiles” on page 29 for information on the permission sets
created by the installer for the customer profile you selected. See Chapter 4, “Adding
Users and Groups,” on page 47 for information about using Workgroup Manager and
creating permission sets.
