Antoine Levy-Lambert commented on DIRSERVER-1422:
-------------------------------------------------
Functionally, it would be ideal to be able to delegate authentication to Active
Directory and also to be able to handle authorization (group based ACLs) based
on group memberships from Active Directory.
