Deleting a group with the Domino Administrator or the Web Administrator
Follow these steps to use the Administration Process to delete a group from the Domino® Directory and from database ACLs and Extended ACLs. If the server is running Active Directory and contains a group account for this group, you can delete that group account, too.

About this task

When you attempt to delete an auto-populated group with one or more subgroups, a warning message displays advising that you are deleting an auto-populated group with subgroups and asking if you want to continue. If you choose Yes, the groups are deleted. When you delete an auto-populated group with one or more subgroups the administration process requests for deleting a group are generated individually for each group and subgroup.

Note: You can also delete a group from the Tools panel using Groups -> Delete.
