Setting Up and Managing NetWare Directory Services Objects

Managing Groups of User Objects

For example, you decide that you need a print manager for SALES. You

create an Organizational Role object called PRINT MANAGER. You grant

the PRINT MANAGER object all object rights to all the Printer, Print

Queue, and Print Server objects in that part of the Directory tree.

You may also grant the PRINT MANAGER object the property rights to the

Print Job Conﬁguration property of users.

You can assign anyone to the PRINT MANAGER object without having to

re-create all the trustee assignments.

When a user is added to the occupant list of an Organizational Role object,

the Organizational Role is listed in that user’s “Security Equal To” property.

The user is granted all rights that any object (User, Group, Printer, etc.) in

that list is granted, both to objects and to ﬁles and directories.

You can use NetWare Administrator or NETADMIN to create an

Organizational Role object. Both procedures are described in this section.
