Add Users and User Permissions

Remote control sessions are managed with user permissions and address books. Therefore, you must add users and user permissions for each user account or asset group.

To add a new user permission to an address book group

1. Right-click the Remote Control Permissions node under Group Details and click Add User.

   Alternatively, click Add User Permission in the Tasks portlet of the Remote Control Permissions pane.

   The Add User Permission dialog appears.

2. Select a security authority from the available directories.

   Note: You can add users/groups of ADS, LDAP, and NDS directories, if they are configured.

3. Browse for security principals, that is, users or groups, and select one or more.

   The selected security principal (for example, Administrators) is added to the Names list and a description of the security principal's permissions appears in the Description field.

4. Click Add to add the selected users to the list of security principals.
5. Click OK.

   The selected users have access to all of the computers in the specified computer group.

Note: The first time you add a user and assign permissions, you are in effect creating a new global address book group.
