Working with Groups
If your organization is small or uncomplicated, you may be able to use the built-in groups, add a few of your own, and assign all rights and permissions through shared folders. You can even begin with that expectation. However, your organizational needs will perhaps not align exactly with the groups and tools provided in the Windows SBS Console. In that case, using other built-in groups and customizing them to your needs might be required.
Under the Hood: Group Scopes
All groups have a group scope that defines how permissions are assigned. There are three possible group scopes: global, domain local, and universal.
