Hey, thanks for the good description, a little lightbulb went on over my 
head after I read that last sentence, I always wondered why some people did 
their permissions that way, it seemed overly complicated.  I've always added 
the domain groups directly, now I think I see the point of doing it the 
other way.  (although my network is small enough that there isn't any point 
since it won't make any speed difference)
