Hi Phil,

I tried a test where I commented out "ldap" from the inner tunnel and it 
appears that you are correct.

I had thought that I would need to "load" the module for the LDAP-Group to be 
populated.

It's a common misconception, and in some ways I wish it were more obvious that this isn't the case. But as I say, the attribute is a "virtual" one, and comparisons are executed by a handler that dynamically does the query, as opposed to a list of groups.

Same thing for SQL-Group and (IIRC) the huntgroup attributes.

This can be relevant if you want to do a lot of group comparisons e.g.

 if (Ldap-Group = abc123) {
  ..
 }
 elsif (Ldap-Group == def456) {
  ...
 }

...involves two LDAP directory searches. This can get slow with a lot of groups, for which there are various solutions.
