Users who can log onto a server configuration can be organized into groups. Creating and using groups simplifies the task of managing security on a project, because each group can be assigned a set of privileges that apply to all the users in that group, rather than setting privileges on a user-by-user basis.
The status bar on the User Manager dialog box displays the number of users in the selected group who have access to the server configuration, the number of users connected to the server configuration, and the number of users logged on. The number of users connected to the server configuration and the number of logged on users differ when individual users log on more than once.
These operations can be performed only when the server is running.
