[opencms-dev] Question about administrator rights

[Nico Krause]

Sven,

I think: If you'r within the "Administrator" group you have all rights to
manage the whole CMS.

But some things you can do if you create a special group for your admins
And make it a sub-group of the project-group should be managed.

But I'm sure it's not possible that a admin is able to create an own pool of
users.

This feature is maybe very interesting in case OpenCMS is going to be
useable for more then one client / customer. I'm sure it is currently
possible with tricks - but I'm not sure if its reasonable under all
circumstances...

So long ...

Nico

Hi there again,

is it possible to have an "Administrator" only for a "Group" of users?

The definition in the docu says "administrators hav full access to all 
files and directories and can manage users".

Our need is to create Sub-Admins, which can manage their own group of 
users but don't have access to the whole site (e.g. can delete files who 
they don't own or change users which are outside there groups).

Thanks in advance,
