How do you determine that ou=groups is more common? At the University of Oslo, cn=filegroups and cn=netgroups are used. The former represent the cn=group subtree in Skolelinux. In db.debian.org, file groups are stored in the ou=users subtree. Those where the LDAP instances I had easily available. Anyone else have other data points? > What do you think?
