As Johan already wrote, Subversion does not look anywhere but in its authorisation files for group definitions. Not LDAP, nor AD, nor any other group directory. If your groups are defined in LDAP, then you very likely already have a tool that extracts them from there into the proper format for Subversion; in that case, all you need to do is tell svnauthz about that file, see the '--groups-file' option. -- Brane > -----Original Message----- > From: Branko Čibej [mailto:br...@apache.org] > Sent: Dienstag, 11.
