About the Users view

When you login to ContentDirector, you identify yourself as a particular user. Your user ID determines your users rights and the resources to which you have access. Users are members of domains and users groups. You find information about the configuration of users, user groups, and domains in the Users view. The user rights attached to your login ID determine which of the tables of the Users view are visible to you.
