           Summary: Support for nested groups in LDAP
           Product: Apache httpd-2
           Version: 2.2.3
          Platform: All
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: NEW
          Severity: enhancement
          Priority: P2
         Component: mod_authz_ldap
        AssignedTo: [email protected]
        ReportedBy: [EMAIL PROTECTED]


It is currently impossible to authorize a user when he's member of a group
nested in the group defined in "require ldap-group". The nesting of groups makes
sense in scenarios when it is practical to reuse existing LDAP group definitions
and their extension (and/or joining).
The functionality can be implemented by recursively searching in nested groups
if the user isn't member of the group itself. This functionality can be made
optional because of the expensive nature of such recursion.
