ADDING USERS/PERMISSIONS
TO FRONTPAGE-BASED WEBS
FrontPage detects users and user groups by looking at user accounts already setup on the server or domain where your published Web resides. If these accounts do not exist on the server, you must make a request to your ISP or network administrator to set them up. Then you can use FrontPage to add or modify these accounts in your Web or subwebs. The following information will help you manage users and provide the correct permissions they need.
The three permission settings you can give user and user group accounts are: Browse, Author, and Administer. Browse permission means users cannot open the Web using FrontPage, but can browse it. Author permission means users can open the Web and edit content using FrontPage. Administer permission means users can open, edit, create new subwebs, and modify Web permissions with FrontPage. To add new user accounts with Browse, Author, or Administer permissions, do the following:
1.) Using FrontPage, open your Web or subweb*.
2.) On the Tools menu, click on Security, and then click Permissions.
3.) Click the Users tab and then click the Add button.
4.) In the Obtain List From: box, select the server or domain from which you want to add accounts.
5.) Under Names: select the accounts you want to add with permission to this Web and click Add.
6.) Under Allow users to: select the level of permissions for the accounts you added. Then Click OK.
7.) If you need to edit permissions for any account, select the account and click the Edit button. Click Apply, and then click OK.
You can follow the same procedures listed above for adding new groups with permissions to your Web.

SUBWEB
