TASK 2: Create Groups
STEP 1: Create a Domain Local Group
Back to Top
The typical process for creating security groups is to put users in global groups and then put
global groups in domain local groups. The domain local groups are then associated with
resources, and specific access permissions are given at this level. This may seem like extra work,
but when you have hundreds or thousands of users and many dozens of resources, this makes
management much easier. Our objective is to create a domain local group called DomainMgrs.
We will create a global group called GlobalMgrs. We will put the user based on your name in
GlobalMgrs and then GlobalMgrs into DomainMgrs. In a later lab, we will associate permissions.
Action
Log on to the server as administrator, and open Server Manager.
Expand the left panel in Server Manager until you get to the users folder and click Users.
One way to create a new object in the highlighted container is to do the following: Click Action
on the menu and then click New, and follow by clicking Group.
For the Group Name, type DomainMgrs and select Domain local under Group scope. Click OK.
