Hi

In setting up Frontpage SE 2002 (on a 2003-server), I've run into this
problem:

What I want: To have Frontpage make use of groups in the Domain rather than
create it's own local groups (ie. ows_1234567_admin etc.)

Where I am: I've found the settings "nomachinegroups" and
"anonusergroupprefix", but they only solve half of my problem.
"nomachinegroups" disables the creation of ows-groups, and
"anonusergroupprefix" makes use of a Domain Group - but for anonymous access
only! If I assign an administrator, this user (domain user) is not added to
any groups. Only the ntfs-settings are set.

What I'm hoping you have the answer to: I wish to find out how to point the
frontpage roles to existing domain groups ie. admins -> domain admins,
browsers->users but have this be default-behaviour for a newly extended
website! ie.
1. Create website, get id = 1234567
2. Create groups "domain\fpse_1234567_admin", "domain\fpse_1234567_browser"
3. Extend website and have the accounts of above groups automatically
assigned to roles.
