[rt-users] Problem with groups and "Couldn't load the specified principal"

[Jaye Mathisen]

I see the problem.  You type in a group and then have to assign rights 
to it at the time.  It doesn't appear to work to just create a group, 
then assign rights.

It's working fine once I type in a group name, and then click any of the 
checkboxes then hit save.

My apologies for my confusion.

4.0.17 is working great.  Might bite the bullet and jump to 4.2 before 
we get too far into this.

Thanks for your help.
