As Charlie and Kurt have indicated, the introduction of new groups will necessitate a logoff/logon.
I'd recommend that you create the groups you need today, and add the users to their respective groups some time in advance of the permissions change. Then, you can add the new groups and remove the old ones at a later point, and MOST people should have logged off in between. While you still need to track and communicate this, the actual impact will be less if you approach it this way. *ASB *(My XeeSM Profile) <http://XeeSM.com/AndrewBaker> *Exploiting Technology for Business Advantage...* * * On Mon, Dec 27, 2010 at 10:31 AM, Todd Lemmiksoo <[email protected]>wrote: > I am planning on making changes to a network file share that will impact a > set of health users.
