-------------------------------------
[~spolavarapu] I just re-read my question and I realized I made a mistake. I've
edited my question now. Can you re-evaluate if the answer you gave is still
correct ?

> Several large enterprises have their groups in LDAP/AD nested within other
> groups. Since Ranger user sync currently only pulls in the immediate group,
> it is possible that some nested memberships might not be available for policy
> authoring. Hadoop user-group mapping already supports nested LDAP/AD groups
> for policy enforcement at the Ranger plugin.
