Description

 

 

Group Name

This is the Directory Server group name. Microsoft Active Directory servers have a

 

reverse mapping from the user to the groups where the user is a member. Other servers

 

might need to combine the Group Name with a Search Context to look up the group or

 

to determine if the user is a member of the group.

 

Nested group memberships (groups that are members of groups) are searched to a

 

depth of up to four levels when determining user group membership.
