[RADIATOR] Authby LSA and groups not working (redux)

[Johnson, Neil M]

Okay,

I think I may have found the issue.

The group I'm trying to query is a Active Directory "Universal" Group. If I query a "Global" group it works.

It appears that Win32::NetAdmin does not support "Universal" Groups and that the only solution is to perform an LDAP or ADSI query.

-Neil
