Active Directory

Active Directory

DEVOS supports two levels per Active Directory groups.  You can add a group/subgroup as Users or Admins. You can have as many groups as desired.
Groups must be set up as Universal Groups, not Global Groups.

For reference:

A Universal Group is a security or distribution group that contains users, groups, and computers from any domain in its forest as members. You can give universal security groups rights and permissions on resources in any domain in the forest.

A Global Group is a group that can be used in its own domain, in member servers and in workstations of the domain, and in trusting domains. In all those locations, you can give a global group rights and permissions and the global group can become a member of local groups. However, a global group can contain user accounts that are only from its own domain.
