While building of a package, Thinstall will lookup the specified Group Names into SID values so the Group Names specified must be valid at the time of build. Thinstall can resolve group ownership at runtime using cached creditials so laptop users can continue to be authenticated even when they are offline.

If the user does not have access to execute the package, the AccessDeniedMsg can be customized to instruct the user.
