Chapter 4 Adding Users and Groups 49
I
Step 5: Create custom permission sets for the groups (if necessary)
Based on the profile selected during Final Cut Server installation, your system will
already have several permission sets. These permission sets define a wide variety of
permission settings, allowing you to control access to the Final Cut Server catalog. You
can create additional permission sets if necessary. See “Adding and Managing
Permission Sets” on page 127 for more information.
Step 6: Assign permission sets to groups
Assigning permission sets to the groups is the last step in making Final Cut Server
available to your users.
This chapter covers the most common tasks in adding and configuring groups. See
Chapter 10, “Groups and Permissions,” on page 125 for details about creating
permission sets and using the client’s Administration window to manage permissions.

manage local groups and users. This method is available to Leopard and
Leopard Server users.
