Multiple groups for workarea security

13adam13

TS 6.7.1 SP1 Windows 2003

Is it correct that a WORKAREA can only have one group assigned to it for permissions? I am not talking about the files/folders within a workarea, but the workarea itself.

The docs say:

Workarea permissions. A user has workarea permissions if he is either the primary owner of a workarea or if he belongs to the group that has access to the workarea.

However, it would seem that you can add any number of additional users to the workarea with the permissions tab, but cannot add additional groups. I am not positive that the instance that I am playing with is working correctly, so I just trying to make sure that IW has removed the ability to have more than one group assigned permissions to a workarea.
When I attempt to add additional groups, the pop-up window to add User/Group permissions acts like it will let me add groups, but they are not added.

Thanx for the sanity check,
Adam

Adam - This is not the case with 6.7.1. But maybe with SP1. In which case, you will have to add the groups to your workarea group. Also, you should log this with IWOV Support and see what they say..
