General Considerations

Changed settings are not effective until you click the Ok button. Cancel button cancels all changes made. Server can still work when changing settings.

Users & groups list

This is the list of the current accounts. There are two types of account: users and groups. Groups can't be used alone. Groups are used to share settings between a group of users. An user has a name, a login which might be different from his name, and optionally a password. There cannot be multiple users with the same login or name, but they can have the same password, not recommended though.
Groups are shown by an icon with two persons, users are shown by a single person icon. Users belonging to a group are placed under this group and indented to the right. Users who don't belong to a group aren't indented. Groups and users are sorted alphabetically.

To add a new user account, click the Add User button.
To add a new group account, click the Add Group button.
To remove an account, user or group, select it and click the Delete button.

Inheritance Rules
Users belonging to a group share some settings with the group. For the inheritance to apply you must set the check box of the option grey-checked. If you cannot set it to grey-checked, either the user doesn't belong to a group or the option cannot be inherited. When you add a user to a group, a certain number of options are automatically grey-checked.

Example:
Grey-checked: user inherits the group setting. Exception: User limit.
or The setting is either inactive or active. Group setting has no effect.
