I am trying to do something I thought I have done many times before, but it 
is not working now - using Roles based Authorization with LDAP 
authentication and specifically LDAP Groups

I believe I have LDAP Authentication setup and working  for both users and 
groups
I believe I have Role based authentication set up.

Granting roles to LDAP users directly - either global or project roles - 
works. I can login with LDAP user and get expected permissions. Granting 
roles to 'authenticated' also seems to work.

However if I grant permissions to LDAP group - it just does not work. 

I am very confused why assigning roles to groups does not work.

Few thoughts and observations: 

* "Assign Roles" UI recognizes LDAP Groups and shows a group icon next to 
them.

* "User status" UI (/user/username URI) shows groups for the use and I even 
ran that LDAP test groovy script that worked as expected. Although...

* "User Status" only shows groups to "admin" user. A regular use with just 
access to run specific jobs does not see their own groups - perhaps 
something is blocking non-admin users from reading their own groups?

* Increasing logging shows that a user that was granted admin rights 
directly has all the groups in the "Granted Authorities" but non-admin user 
only has "authenticated" - interestingly enough admin user does NOT have 
'authenticated'...

* Don't think it is relevant here, but in the past I recall having to do a 
special prefix for groups (like '@' I think) - not sure if this is still 
necessary


Versions -- Running this on:

* Jenkins 2.10
* LDAP Plugin 1.12
* Role Based Authorization Strategy 2.3.2

Any thoughts or suggestions would be appreciated....

Thanks,

-Michael
