With DNN 5.x, I was able to set specific permissions for specific groups so that they could user "some" admin functions.  Things like the File Manager, Pages, Users, etc.  With DNN 5.x I could set view permissions on the main Admin page that would display the "Admin" link in the top right of the page.  That worked perfect for what I wanted to accomplish.

How do I do the same with DNN 6?  If I set view permissions, the group does have the ability to view the page, but not the link in the new grey admin menu in the top.  How do I make that link Active?

if the user has permissions to the admin page they should see the link in the top left AFAIK (i could be wrong and i dont have an install on this laptop to check) - however one option is to simply create a link to yoursite.com/admin.aspx (or add a menu item and in it's settings redirect to the admin page)
