General Workow for Creating Users and Groups
Creating groups and users for Final Cut Server involves these steps:
Creating Users in the Accounts Pane of System Preferences Stage 1:
or in Workgroup Manager
You can either create local users or skip this step if you already have user accounts set
up using Open Directory.
Creating Groups and Users in the Accounts Pane of System Preferences
Stage 2:
or in Workgroup Manager
You need to create one or more groups using the Accounts pane of System Preferences
or the Mac OS X Server Workgroup Manager. You may skip this step if suitable groups
have already been created in Open Directory or Active Directory. After you have
created the groups, you can add users to them. You can mix local and Open Directory
or Active Directory users.
Adding Groups to Final Cut ServerStage 3:
After groups have been created and users added to them, you need to add the groups
to Final Cut Server.
Assigning Permission Sets for GroupsStage 4:
Based on the prole selected during Final Cut Server installation, your system will
already have several permission sets. These permission sets dene a wide variety of
permission settings, allowing you to control access to the Final Cut Server catalog. You
can create additional permission sets if necessary. For more information about creating
custom permission sets, see the Final Cut Server Administrator Guide.
Assigning permission sets to the groups is the last step in making Final Cut Server
available to your users.
