Posted by Dayra Munoz on 03/11/02 07:20 PM
Hi friends:

I have installed OpenACS 4.0 with Linux 7.2, AOLServer 3.2. and
postgresql 7.3.1

How and What kind set permissions i have assign to user
mailto:abc@hotmail.com, for that this user can:

Create users, create groups, change password to ohter users, etc...
that this user have the same permissions that has system user.

I done something test (set permissions to the user in all Main Site
and each application and it is not worked for this user assign to
groups)

Thanks for your attention.

If you want to make another user site-wide admin then grant him admin permission on the special object 0 at: /permissions/one?object_id=0.

To allow the user to administer groups it should be sufficient to grant admin on the Main Site object, but to change passwords and other user admin stuff which is part of the site-wide adminstration he has to be site-wide admin.
