    hmmm - ok...... I don't get this

    So I guess you're perhaps setup with a task to synchronise the group members daily. This is default but I believe can be be deleted once you've all your users setup and configured how you want them. It can become awkward though, if you need to add and remove users on a regualr basis, as you need to recreate the task and then reconfigure the users in auth.conf from scratch - before removing the task again.

    Take a look at the available options for 'SyncGroupMembers' in the CLISH

    This type of config is not likely to be suitable for some environments and perhaps also why it's still not supported - it's ok for me but then I only have the need to configure a handful of local users that don't change at all. Always make sure you have a backup of the file before editing.

Thanks for your reply. But when I edit the auth. Conf with granular permissions for users added in auth.conf file. It gets reset every day automatically. How can we sort this out.
