Hello,
We have integrated our GeoServer with active directory (AD) as per this
documentation
<https://docs.geoserver.org/latest/en/user/security/tutorials/activedirectory/index.html>
.
We are attempting to RESTRICT GeoServer access through the use of an active
directory GROUP.

Goal:

   - KEEP default/basic users and local user functionality as is. These
   users are created locally on GeoServer and authenticate using the basic
   method.  (Working)
   - UPDATE the AD-LDAP authentication to:
      - automatically synchronize users between GeoServer and AD (Working)
      - restrict AD users to the AD group: portal_user group:
         - Only users in this group will be available in the GeoServer user
         list (working).
         - Only users in this AD group can log in to GeoServer (ISSUE: ALL
         AD Users can log in)


*Details On Issue:*

AD-LDAP has been configured to synchronize with AD and restrict to the
portal_user group.

HOWEVER ... by doing a different test I realized still any AD user can log
in. The configuration I put in place was apparently only for setting roles
and permissions once the user has logged in, but not to restrict or limit
who can log in.

I tested other different LDAP filters trying to restrict *Portal_User* group
only but it was worse (I got errors when trying to log in).


Thanks in advance for any suggestions.

Please reply all.

Vera
