The Solution Rating System

With so many solutions, how can you tell which solutions are most likely to help you and which ones are not? To provide you with a tool to use, we rate our solutions based on various elements that most accurately determine if a solution is a quality solution. To explain what factors affect the solution rating, here are the elements we take into consideration when formulating our solution rating.

  • The Grade of the Solution
  • The Zone Rank of the Expert Providing the Solution
  • The Number of Author and Expert Comments
  • The Number of Experts Contributing
  • The Feedback of the Community

Your Input Matters
Because of the way the system is set up, the most important variable in this equation is you. As a member of Experts Exchange, you are able to cast your vote on the quality of the solutions in regard to how complete, accurate, helpful and easy to understand each solution is. When you provide your feedback, each rating is adjusted accordingly. So, if you see a solution that has a poor rating that you think is a good solution, let us know by rating it. As you do, the rating will be adjusted and will become more accurate for other members of our site.

If you have any suggestions that you would like to make for our rating system, please ask a question in the Suggestions Zone of Community Support.

Thank you!

Domain Local group vs Global group

Asked by cakirfatih in Windows Networking

Tags: local, global, group, domain, vs

Hi,

I came accross this text on MS web site about using groups in AD

http://www.microsoft.com/technet/prodtechnol/windowsserver2003/library/ServerHelp/95107162-47eb-4891-832f-0c0b15b7c858.mspx

When to use groups with domain local scope
Groups with domain local scope help you define and manage access to resources within a single domain. These groups can have as their members:

• Groups with global scope
 
• Groups with universal scope
 
• Accounts
 
• Other groups with domain local scope
 
• A mixture of any of the above
 

For example, to give five users access to a particular printer, you could add all five user accounts in the printer permissions list. If, however, you later want to give the five users access to a new printer, you would again have to specify all five accounts in the permissions list for the new printer.

With a little planning, you can simplify this routine administrative task by creating a group with domain local scope and assigning it permission to access the printer. Put the five user accounts in a group with global scope and add this group to the group having domain local scope. When you want to give the five users access to a new printer, assign the group with domain local scope permission to access the new printer. All members of the group with global scope automatically receive access to the new printer.

----------------------------

Why can't i just use a Gloabal group with five users and assign it Printer permissions.
It says i have to add the Global group to Domain local group and assign permissions on it.

thanks
