Sandeep More commented on KNOX-536:
-----------------------------------
I was able to successfully authenticate against nested OUs using Knox's PAM
support (0.10.0), I tested it against OpenLDAP for now and nested OUs and
nested groups are visible to Knox. [~eyang] and [~jeffreyr97] I tried to
document the test as a blog post
(https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/pages/viewrecentblogposts.action?key=KNOX)
so it might be useful for others (and me in the future), can you take a look
and see if this covers your use-case and any other that you can think of, it
will be really great to get your feedback !
