Jitendra Nath Pandey commented on HADOOP-12291:
-----------------------------------------------
I have committed this to branch-2 as well. However the patch doesn't apply to
branch-2.8. There are other patches in this context that are pre-requisites for
this to apply cleanly in branch-2.8. I am inclined to leave it as fixed in 2.9
only.

> When using {{LdapGroupsMapping}} with Hadoop, nested groups are not
> supported. So for example if user {{jdoe}} is part of group A which is a
> member of group B, the group mapping currently returns only group A.
> Currently this facility is available with {{ShellBasedUnixGroupsMapping}} and
> SSSD (or similar tools) but would be good to have this feature as part of
> {{LdapGroupsMapping}} directly.
