Default Adding domain to a multi-domain admin user

Hello.

What should be an incredibly simple task is confusing as heck.

I have someadmin@domain.com who manages a bunch of domain names.
I want to add thenewdomain.com to zimbra and have someadmin@domain.com manage the domain name.

You would think there's some way to list/add/edit a bunch of domain names to one administrator but if there is - it's very well hidden. Does anyone know how this is done?

generally any admin user you create has rights to all domains on teh system. you can create domain administrators, but it requires the network edition. are you running that or the oss?

I am running the network edition and the admins are domain admins, sorry for the confusion. There are a few domain admins that only manage a single domain, but a couple that are to manage multiple domains. I had set this up once before but for some reason I cannot find anything in documentation or in the GUI that directs me to the procedure.

Thanks!

click on the domain in the admin console, and the last tab on the right should be ACL

Yeah, I see that... Next you'll tell me I have to somehow figure out what all the cryptic right-type and right-names are for every possible use of the domain... one by one, right?

So just adding domainAdminRights will do the trick?

Thanks for your help eh.

Like Cisco ACLs, until you "get it" it's not very intuitive.

Hope that helps,
Mark
