Easy Question How to create Basic Groups and add respective Users

Please help. I need to know how to create a basic group and later add users to the group. The group name would be callled Hardware and I will add johnsmith and janedoe to the group. Should I concern myself with the group id for whatever reason? I think the command is somthing like groupadd. Do I do somthing like:
# groupadd Hardware
# useradd -G Hardware johnsmith
# useradd -G Hardware janedoe
I'm using Solaris 10 if that helps.
A million thanks I very New2Solaris,
Johnny Mac

Ok here is what I found on the net:
change a user's group information change a user's primary group membership:
usermod -g Hardware johnsmith
usermod -g Hardware janedoe
I forgot to mention that these are existing accounts (sorry)
In order to change user's supplemental group membership:
usermod -G Hardware johnsmith
usermod -G Hardware janedoe
is the supplemental group simply adding them to another group and not changing there primary group, which by default I think is staff. I would like to keep them in staff and add them to another group, in this case Hardware.
Anyones thougths?

    Hi,
    The command above about creating a group only works for the root site of the site collection, because the scope of the user group is site collection level, these groups
    can be used in all the sites in this site collection.
    With the existing groups in the root site, we can add users into them and grant specific permissions of a specific sub site to these groups.
    Here is a demo about how to assign permission to a group using Client Object Model(though in C#) for your reference:

  • How to create a control and add it to a page layput

    I am reading the following link :-
    http://www.itidea.nl/index.php/what-about-you-must-fill-out-all-required-properties-before-completing-this-action-when-publishing-a-page/
    which says that i need to create a control and add it to a page layout. but can anyone help me in understanding how i can create a user control and add them to page layout ?
    Thanks

    > First problem  i could not find a User Control (Farm Solution only) under the Office/SharePoint section
    if you mean New item in Visual Studio, then check it under general Web category. User controls are basic ASP.Net functionalities, not Sharepoint-specific. If it is not there, you may use the following trick:
    1. Create new project in other VS instance using "ASP.Net Empty Web Application" template
    2. Add new user control there (in this project type it should exist for sure under Web category. Called "Web User Control")
    3. Copy all user control's files to the folder of your Sharepoint project (ascx, ascx.cs, ascx.designer.cs)
    4. In VS instance with Sharepoint project add existing items: all copied user control files. They should be grouped under ascx file automatically after that
    > The type or namespace name 'TaxonomyFieldControl' could not be found (are you missing a using directive or an assembly reference?)"
    you need to add reference to Microsoft.SharePoint.Taxonomy.dll assembly, which is located in the GAC (assume that you have installed Sharepoint on your dev env)

    thanks a lot for your help. so can i do the following steps:-
    I follow these steps to deploy a user control.
    using Visual Studio 2012 , i added a new Farm solution.
    then inside the farm solution i added a new User Control(Farm Solution Only).
      3.   inside the user control i entered the following code:-
    using Microsoft.SharePoint;

    //after succeeding this check the page is validated (this.Page.Validate()) and this one fails which results SP validating the page as the Save button does
    if (baseParentStateControl.HasError)
    //this overwrites the previous PageErrorState
    //and validates the page
    //no popup anymore and status updates in yellow area
    baseParentStateControl.EnsureItemSavedIfEditMode(false);
    else
    //there are missing fields at this listitem, but they're not on the page
    //do nothing here, because the SerializedErrorState contains the navigate url to the Edit Properties page
    //and a message pops up
    /// <summary>
    /// Check if required fields are missing which are present at the page
    /// </summary>
    /// <returns></returns>
    private static bool AreThereAnyMissingRequiredFieldsOnPage()
    foreach (Control control in SPContext.Current.FormContext.FieldControlCollection)
    //get the control type
    string type = control.GetType().Name;
    FieldTypes controlType = (FieldTypes)Enum.Parse(typeof(FieldTypes), type);
    switch (controlType)
    case FieldTypes.TaxonomyFieldControl:

    return false;
    enum FieldTypes
    DateTimeField, FieldValue, TextField, RichImageField, NoteField, RichHtmlField, PublishingScheduleFieldControl, TaxonomyFieldControl, BooleanField, ComputedField
      4. i add a reference for the Sharepoint.taxnomy
      5. then i deploy the solution to my site collection. and now i can see the new solution inside the farm solution under central administration.
    but not sure if these are all the required steps to register the user control or still i need to do extra steps ?

  • How to create a package and add a file?

    Hi all,
    I am new to Java and very much much confussed with how to create a package and then include some files any help will be very thankfull.
    Thanks for your help
    kka.

    Steps for creating a package in java are as follows:
    Choose a base directory for your classes. For example, you might choose c:\java\packages. Type the following command:
    set CLASSPATH=%CLASSPATH%;c:\java\packages
    Create subdirectories for each chapter or section, if you don't already have them.
    For each of the classes in the subdirectories, add the following line to the very top of each file:
    package directory-name;
    where directory-name is the name of the subdirectory the class file is located in.
    In other directories you may have class files that need to access one of the classes in another directory (package). To do this, write one of the following at the top of the class that needs the other class:
    import subdir.*;
    or
    import subdir.classname;
    Use the class by name in the new class file.
    Note that you can create sub-packages by creating subdirectories of the original subdirectories, and inserting package statements at the top of the java files in those directories.
    Hope this helps!

  • Newbie question: How to create a namespace and record filedate-retrieve

    Spanking new to Namespaces
    Looking for a way to place a .jpg as a smart object, then using Namespace, record the filedate of the .jpg
    Then, have the layer sense if the original .jpg is newer and change the color of the layer.
    Running into complications trying to do this with .jsx scripting alone.
    Reason: This way, if the .jpg has been updated on the file server, the artist will be able to easily see that.
    Don't want to add a panel and more work for the artist. Rather, have it all happen behind the scenes.

    Here is how I create a new namespace in the layer metadata for my panel
    // new namespace. Even though it looks like a web url it's not. It just needs to be unique.
    const ns= 'http://www.smartobjectlinks.com/1.0/';
    function setSOLinkMetadata( property, value ){
         if( activeDocument.activeLayer.isBackgroundLayer || !loadXMPLibrary()){
              alert( ErrStrs.CONVERT );
         } else {
              var xmp;
              if (value == "")
                   value = " ";     
              try{
                   xmp = new XMPMeta( activeDocument.activeLayer.xmpMetadata.rawData );
              } catch(e) {// no metadata so create new and add namespace
                   xmp = new XMPMeta();
                   var linkNS = new Namespace ( 'link', ns );
                   XMPMeta.registerNamespace ( linkNS, 'SOlink' );
              try{
                   xmp.setProperty(ns, property, value );
              } catch(e) {
                   alert( ErrStrs.FAILEDMETADATA + e);
              activeDocument.activeLayer.xmpMetadata.rawData = xmp.serialize();
         unloadXMPLibrary();
    If the file being linked has metadata you can use the ModifyDate in the XMP.
    function getfileDate( file ){
         var date = new String();
         try{
              loadXMPLibrary();
              var xmpf = new XMPFile( file.fsName, XMPConst.UNKNOWN,
                                       XMPConst.OPEN_FOR_READ );
              var xmp = xmpf.getXMP();
              xmpf.closeFile();
              date = new XMPDateTime( xmp.getProperty
                                  (XMPConst.NS_XMP, "ModifyDate").toString() );
         }catch(e){// fallback to OS file date
              date = new XMPDateTime ( file.created );
         date = date.toString();
         unloadXMPLibrary();
         return date;
    The hard part will be getting the layer to 'sense' when the original has been changed. If you don't want the user to trigger the test you will have to use an event like open.

  • How to create new groups (list) for storing user's data?

    Hi,
    I'm using cq-5.4 and I was undertaking the campaign management tutorial which explains about how to send out a weekly news letter. As a part of that I was creating a sign up form for subscribers to fill out. So after filling up that form, user's data would get stored somewhere and eventually that data will be used while sending out the weekly news letters to him.
    This was the link I was referring to for that,
    http://dev.day.com/docs/en/cq/5-4/wcm/campaigns.html#Create a Sign Up Form
    So on that link, the 3rd screenshot talks about how to set the form action. They have for example set the form action to 'Create and Update Account' and accordingly under 'Action Configuration', 'geometrixx newsletter' is assigned as the 'Initial Group'. But they never talked about how to create the 'geometrixx-newsletter' group? Where to create that group etc. Hence, after completing the form when I press submit, nothing happens. In reality whatever data I entered should've got stored in the 'geometrixx newsletter' group.
    So that is the place where I'm stuck. Can someone tell me how and where should i create this group?
    Thanks!

    Hi,
    Thank you for posting the screen shots I have been unsuccessful in determining exactly where the problem is coming from. Would it be possible for you to post the actual VI so that I can work with it so see if I can reproduce this issue using your code? In regard to your questions:
    1.    You are correct 1000 samples read should write 1000 samples to the table
    2.    I believe the discrepancy is due to amount of manipulation done between the read and the file write but I cannot be certain, without the code to work with.
    3.     I am unclear as to exactly what is happening. If you are reading empty channels then you may receive erroneous readings this is to be expected. When you connected your accelerometer did you connect in RSE or differential? You can also manipulate the signal range with will affect the gain setting, how off are the readings?

  • How to create secutiry filters and users, groups in system 9

    HI,
    Could you please help me how to create security filters and groups, users in system 9. I need it very ugent. i am very much thankful to you.. if you respond immediatly.
    Thanks,
    sudhakar.

    In short here's how I did it in 9.3.1 but there are multiple ways to do it.
    I'm using MSAD external authentication.
    Using EAS right click on database, Edit, Filters. Create your filters.
    Then go to Shared Services.
    Find the MSAD user/group and provision them to the Essbase database that you have your filters on. Access level is "Filter".
    Then go back to EAS and Refresh Security From Shared Services.
    Then go back to Shared Services.
    Navigate to Projects & then your Essbase server. Find your Essbase database and click on it. To the right it'll populate a list of all the users/groups you provisioned to above. Select all of them and click Next.
    Now you should see a drop down at the top showing your filter(s). Click the checkbox(s) next to the users/groups you want to apply that filter to. Click the green checkmark to apply the filter, and repeat for your various filters that you want to apply. Only 1 filter per user/group.
    Then go back to EAS and Refresh Security From Shared Services again.
    Good luck, hope this helps.

  • How to create a group calendar?

    Hello,
    i am sorry but this is one more question on wiki-group-calendars.
    *In short:*
    I am not able to create a group calendar with the wiki frontend. the calendar that is created with a wiki is owned by the admin of the wiki. So it is always a personal calendar that cannot be shared in iCal.
    LONG:
    I want to create a group calendar that is viewed and edited through iCal.app and the web service. Apple´s "wiki deployment" guide says on page 57:
    +"The web calendar allows you to easily schedule events for yourself or your group. ...+
    +There are *two types of web calendars: personal and group*. You can send and receive event invitations through the personal calendar but not through the group calendar. Also, *while anyone in a group can create or edit events in a group calendar*, you can edit only events in your own personal calendar or event invitations you send to other people.+
    +The web calendar uses iCal Server to store events and invitations. ..."+
    But there is not mentioned how to create a group calendar. The calendar created with the wiki web-frontend belongs to the admin of that particular wiki. This is why the calendar data ist stored in folder named with the UUID of the wiki admin. Also the alias "http://server.fqdn:8008/principals/groups/mygroupname/" which i provided in iCal turns into ..._uids_UUID-of-the-wiki-admin and only the wiki-admin can access this calendar in iCal.app.
    My research on this topic reveals that there were in issue that should be resolved in 10.6.4 (that is running on our Server). So, again, how to create a group calendar?
    Thanks, Philipp.

    You said "you need to go to the wiki page and add the wiki's there...." What is the "wiki page" you mention? Is that some place I go to via the browser or the Server Admin tool?
    I went to http://ical.mysite.com/ical/ and logged in as the Directory Administrator but didn't see anything resembling what you described.
