If the server is remote, establish an SSH session. “Secure Shell (SSH) Command” on page 591
tells you how.
14 Type “sudo /usr/sbin/CreateGroupFolder.” Enter your password if prompted.
Set up access to the group folder for users who log in as a group member. There are several
options.
You can automate a group member’s access to the group folder when the user logs in:
m You can set up Dock preferences to make the group folder visible in the Dock. See
“Providing Easy Access to Group Folders” on page 310 for instructions.
m You can set up login preferences so users can click Computer in the Finder to see the
group folder share point and the group folders within it. See “Providing Easy Access to the
Group Share Point” on page 323 for instructions.
When using these preferences, make sure that the group is defined in a shared domain in the
search policy of the group member’s computer. See “Setting Up Search Policies” on page 87
for instructions.
If you don’t automate group folder access, group members can use the Connect To Server
command on the Finder’s Go menu to navigate to the server where the group folder resides
to access the group folder.
Working With Group and Computer Preferences
See Chapter 6, “Client Management: Mac OS X,” and Chapter 10, “Client Management:
Mac OS 9 and OS 8,” for information about how you can use groups when you want managed
Mac OS X users to have workgroup and computer list preferences.
Deleting a Group Account
You can use Workgroup Manager to delete a group account stored in a NetInfo or LDAPv3
directory domain.
To delete a group account using Workgroup Manager:
1 In Workgroup Manager, open the group account you want to delete if it is not already open.
To open the account, click the Accounts button, then use the At pop-up menu to open the
directory domain where the account resides. Click the lock to be authenticated. Select the
group in the group list.
