<P><FONT SIZE=2>Sven,</FONT>
</P>
<P><FONT SIZE=2>I think: If you'r within the "Administrator" group you have all rights to manage the whole CMS.</FONT>
</P>
<P><FONT SIZE=2>But some things you can do if you create a special group for your admins</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>And make it a sub-group of the project-group should be managed.</FONT>
</P>
<P><FONT SIZE=2>But I'm sure it's not possible that a admin is able to create an own pool of users.</FONT>
</P>
<P><FONT SIZE=2>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...</FONT></P>
<P><FONT SIZE=2>So long ...</FONT>

</P>
<P><FONT SIZE=2>Hi there again,</FONT>
</P>
<P><FONT SIZE=2>is it possible to have an "Administrator" only for a "Group" of users?</FONT>
</P>
<P><FONT SIZE=2>The definition in the docu says "administrators hav full access to all </FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>files and directories and can manage users".</FONT>
</P>
<P><FONT SIZE=2>Our need is to create Sub-Admins, which can manage their own group of </FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>users but don't have access to the whole site (e.g. can delete files who </FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>they don't own or change users which are outside there groups).</FONT>
</P>
<P><FONT SIZE=2>Thanks in advance,</FONT>
