Users that need to make use of a group may either contact Computer Resources to have a group created and maintained for them, or the user may create and maintain the group himself in the organizational part of the tree. Users that choose to create and maintain groups themselves may obtain assistance from Computer Resources over the telephone or from Client Support. We suggest that you let Computer Resources assist you. Groups may be requested by anyone, consisting of any set of users. For example, a professor could request a group consisting of a set of student users that he wants to permit to a certain set of data on one of his group servers.
Most print queues are available to all users.
The print queues are serviced by print servers and printers that are located throughout the NDS tree. The printers group is centralized for easy access by users. Also, all printers defined to NDS may be made accessible from other systems across campus such as MVS, VMS, or any UNIX host. Similarly, there are print queues available for printing to printers connected to other systems. Figure 3 introduces two file servers called employeD and studentD. These servers are referred to as data servers.
