I believe admins is the only special group and IIRC it prevents itself from being deleted. Pretty much deleting any entry will result in permissions will be dropped. editors have no special permissions by default though. It is mostly a legacy group from the original UI though it is used by AD trust to ensure that the SID generation was successful. rob > > Thanks > > On 9 Feb 2018 1:47 pm, "Rob Crittenden" <rcritten(a)redhat.com > <mailto:rcritten@redhat.com>> wrote: > > Oliver Northam via FreeIPA-users wrote: > > Hello! > > > > I'd love to use FreeIPA for all of our auth needs (wifi, samba, > backups > > etc) but I'm a little lost on the configuration of the default > groups. > > > > I have my admin user in the 'admins' group and my test user in the > > 'ipausers' group, but I can't see any permissions or roles or policies > > that define permissions in those groups.
