Setting | Explanation |
---|---|
Realm | A realm is a database of users with a specific name. Users can belong to multiple realms, but any given resource is protected by a single realm. For example, the administration and configuration resources are protected by the "admin" realm, whereas mail is setup by default to use another realm, named "mail". |
Group Name | The name of a group to which zero or more users belong. It may not contain a colon ":". |
Member Name |
The name of a user or group defined in this realm. It may not contain a colon ":" Under UNIX, a user name is not necessarily the UNIX user name, although using the same name makes a lot of sense, especially when using the PowerWeb mail server. |
Add a Group | Define a new group, initially with no members. |
Delete a Group | Delete a group from the realm. |
Add Member to Group | The member may be either a group (in which case its name must be enclosed in square brackets "[]"), or a user name. |
Delete Member from Group | Remove the specified member from the specified group. |
Find Groups | Find all group names that match the given wildcard pattern. |
Find Members | Find all members that belong to the specified group. |
Verify Group Name | Verify that the group is defined in this realm. |
Verify Member Name | Verify that the member belongs to the given group in this realm. If the member name is a user name, then hierarchical groups are searched recursively to determine membership. |
