WD Lesson-33

Creating and Administering Groups

After assessing the user needs and having a group plan in place, we might find it necessary to carry out various administrative tasks to maintain them. These tasks include:

■ Creating the groups

■ Deleting the groups

■ Adding the members

■ Changing group scope

Creating a Group

1. Click Start, point to Administrative Tools, and then click Active Directory Users And Computers.

2. Right-click the appropriate domain, OU, or container, point to New, and click Group.

3. Select the group scope in the Group Scope box. Select the group type in the Group Type box. Click OK.

Deleting a Group

• When we delete a group, we delete only the group and the permissions and rights associated with it.
• Deleting a group does not delete the user accounts that are members of the group.

To delete a group, complete the following steps:

1. Right-click the group, and then click Delete.

2. Click Yes in the Active Directory dialog box.
