I've set up a test Cobbler server to explore its permissions system.  I need to 
be able to allow different groups to have access to cobbler through the WebUI, 
but only give them rights to change/create objects they own.

It looks like I can do this with a combination of the authn_ldap + 
authz_ownership modules: 
https://fedorahosted.org/cobbler/wiki/CustomizableAuthorization

Using the docs, I was able to setup the Cobbler LDAP authentication on my 
server, but it doesn't look like I can use LDAP groups within 
/etc/cobbler/users.conf.  Instead, I have to specify the actual username like 
this:

[admin]
admin = ""
cobbler = ""
myuser = ""

I'd like to be able to add an LDAP group as follows:

[admin]
admin = ""
cobbler = ""
mygroup = ""

So I don't have to update user groups in two different places (LDAP and 
Cobbler).

Is that supported in some other way?

Thanks,
Kyle
