Groups and Permissions

Users can be assigned permissions directly or they can inherit them from their group memberships. Permissions are accumulative; the user's permissions is a collection of the permissions they were assigned directly and have inherited from their memberships. Permissions can only be used to grant access and not to deny it. In order to prevent a user from performing operations, they must not have been directly assigned a permission or be a member of any groups that have.
