> Ranger Usersync provides multiple configuration properties to sync users & 
> groups from AD/LDAP. One of the key configuration properties is the User 
> Search filter (ranger.usersync.ldap.user.searchfilter). Currently, the value 
> of user search filter must be a valid ldap search filter and is used by 
> ranger usersync “as is” to limit the no. of users to be sync’d from AD/LDAP. 
> Example values include:
>  # samaccountname=*  
>  ** Syncs all users from a given user search base
>  # (|(memberof=CN=finance,ou=Hadoop 
> Groups,dc=apache,dc=org)(memberof=CN=eng_dev,ou=Hadoop 
> Groups,dc=apache,dc=org)(memberof=CN=eng_testing,ou=Hadoop 
> Groups,dc=apache,dc=org))
>  ** Sync users that are members of finance, eng_dev, and eng_testing groups
> According to [Microsoft 
> documentation|https://social.technet.microsoft.com/wiki/contents/articles/5392.active-directory-ldap-syntax-filters.aspx],
>  the wildcard character * is not allowed when the <AD Attribute> is a DN 
> attribute. Examples of DN attributes are distinguishedName, manager, 
> directReports, member, and memberOf. If users need to be sync'd from multiple 
> Active Directory groups with memberOf filters, this value can quickly become 
> a long string of OR concatenated group DNs. A single misplaced character in 
> this cryptic string results in all users failing to sync.
