I have trouble adding users to a site.
Why is it not possible to choose Manage Users under Administration? I am a administrator...
I read that users who have Site Manager-permission can do this, but I can`t find this permissionsetting
 
In order to add users you have to have to be a member of the Adminstrator Site Group. If you go into the Site Settings you should see a link called "Manage Users". If you can't access that area, then you need to login with a user that is a member of the Administrator Site Group (these are seperate from Windows Groups). When a site is first created, the person logged in is automatically made an administrator. If the site was created while the domain administrator was logged in, then you can log in with that account and add yourself as an administrator.

These are based off of STS 2.0 SP2, but MOSS 2007 should be similar.
