Hi Josh,

Thanks for this troubleshooting tip.  Getting some interesting output here,
so I'll probably need some help writing a regex to make this work --
assuming it's even possible.  Would I just be able to match on the strings
'admin', 'employee', and 'staff'?

NB the "memberof" attribute in this particular LDAP deployment is
'pdsrole'.  The DN given here isn't helpfrom from a VCL perspective since
everyone in the institution is a member of 'ou=People'.

(begin output)

Array
(
    [count] => 1
    [0] => Array
        (
            [pdsrole] => Array
                (
                    [count] => 3
                    [0] => admin
                    [1] => employee
                    [2] => staff
                )

            [0] => pdsrole
            [count] => 1
            [dn] => uid=290933460177932,ou=People,o=institution.edu,o=cp
        )

)

(end output)
