1. It works fine creating and deleting Permission Groups. Regarding modifications to permissions, perhaps the rather unintuitive user interface is fooling you? After you have selected the relevant users and/or user groups, you must use the update permissions button at the bottom of the page, not the update button at the top of the page, which only updates the properties of the document.

As I said in a previous post, I have only played around a bit with DMS, but so far it seems to work quite well actually (and it will work even better after I fix the order of that undefined variable

, but I've found out it doesn't affect the page breaks). I think the biggest drawback of this module is its unintuitive user interface, but that is not a showstopper to me, but rather something that I will have to compensate for by creating user guidelines for the user.
Also, let's hope someone eventually picks up on this module and develops it further
