{{Warning box|When you create a group, you are required to assign at least one user to that group. If you fail to do so, the group will not be created and you will receive an error message.}}
{{Warning box|When you create a group, you are required to assign at least one user to that group. If you fail to do so, the group will not be created and you will receive an error message.}}
After you add (or remove) a user account from a group, the user must log out and log back in for those changes to take effect. Until the user does so, he or she will still have their old group membership information. For instance, suppose you create a new group "sales" and assign user "ffrog" (Fred Frog) to that group. You then create a new i-bay called "salesinfo" that only the "sales" group can access. Fred Frog is still logged into a Windows PC and now tries to connect to the new i-bay through Windows Explorer. He will receive a permission-denied error. He must log out of Windows (he does not need to shut down or reboot, just log out) and login again. Now he should be able to go through Windows Explorer and access the "salesinfo" i-bay without any problem.
