Ad authority connector
I have a new feature to suggest for the Active Directory connector. We've added a new tab that lets you add the groups name to which the user belongs. It appears that for some of our customers, it is more meaningful to secure their documents according to the name of their groups.
For example, it can retrieve for one user, a list of token like this: S-1-8-35-345 S-1-8-24-4063278141-1379863503-3448703509-74688 HR_MEDICAL_SOCIAL HYPERINFO_MNG Users Domain+Users S-1-1-0
Group names are retrieved, using their SID in the "sub-tree" search scope level, from the "sAMAccountName" attribute of the AD.
Thank you @guylaine-bassette for your contribution, we will consider this for ManifoldCF 2.28 because we don't want to apply any changes to the base code for 2.27 release, this due to the drastic change in the release process.
I have just created another ticket for this: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CONNECTORS-1761
