When I go into the User permissions in the Evergreen Client, it doesn't take any updates to the permissions (it appears to ignore them). When I try to change the permissions I want in the group permissions editor using the cgi scripts, the ones I want to change are grayed out. What am I missing?

Permissions are additive, so the ones that are grayed out are assigned
by an ancestor group.  I'm not sure why you're not able to assign
user-specific permissions, but maybe with more info ... does it work
as the admin user?  Does the user you're using have the grant flag for
the permissions you're attempting to give at the range you want to
give them?
