Nested Global Groups

Win 2K supports nested global groups. Does TeamSite? We are having permissions problems (users can't edit files in TeamSite) when sharing a workarea with a global group, then putting a "Web Support" global group in the shared workarea group. Users in the Web Support global group are the ones having problems in that workarea. All other workareas at this time contain individual users and work fine.

Is there a recommended way to add groups of users to workareas? We anticipate certain groups of users being added to a hundred or more workareas, and it would be very difficult to add or remove a user from 100 workareas each time someone leaves or enters or Web Support group.

Have you tried global groups nested in domain local groups or local groups (you would then share your workarea with the domain local group or local group)?

Also, please see the following:

Unfortunately we use all global groups in our environment (partly because we used to be clustered) so local groups are not an option. Any thoughts?

Please open a support case. The only workaround I can think of I already mentioned (global groups nested in local groups, global groups nested in domain local groups or not nesting global groups at all).
