----------------------------------------------
Summary: Add support for nested groups in LdapGroupsMapping
Key: HADOOP-12291
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HADOOP-12291
Project: Hadoop Common
Issue Type: Improvement
Components: security
Reporter: Gautam Gopalakrishnan
When using {{LdapGroupsMapping}} with Hadoop, nested groups are not supported.
So for example if user {{jdoe}} is part of group A which is a member of group
B, the group mapping currently returns only group A.
Currently this facility is available with {{ShellBasedUnixGroupsMapping}} and
SSSD (or similar tools) but would be good to have this feature as part of
{{LdapGroupsMapping}} directly.
