  4. Enter a group name and a group ID. The group ID should be a unique number between 1000 and 1999. The group privileges apply only to administrative permissions. General users can only change their own password. Power users can create and edit shared folders, user, and groups. Administrators can change any settings including other users' passwords. The email address and group description are optional. From this screen you can also set a quota and/or add users to the new group. Once all fields are set, click OK.
