NetInfo Planning 39
Group Data Planning
Groups are used to assign directory and file access privileges to collections of users.
Here is what a group record looks like in NetInfo Manager. It is a simple record that contains
only the name of the group, the group ID (GID), and a list of the short names of users who
are members of the group.
This section provides information to help you decide how and in which domain(s) to place
NetInfo group records.
