Re: AD Settings in RB
Hi, I was hoping someone else would respond to this. AD is a contributor-supplied feature, which I have little personal knowledge of. We make use of the Python ldap and DNS modules in order to handle authentication. I don't know what is needed to support multiple security groups, whether we need to modify code to allow for it or what. I'd love to give you a better answer, but this is just outside my area of expertise. I'd be fine with providing such support in our ActiveDirectory backend if someone with the ability to test this could provide a patch.

Re: AD Settings in RB
You might be able to do it by setting the group name or a custom search root in the settings but I'm not real familiar with the AD scheme. Currently I'm just using the Find DC from DNS option. The other thing to remember is that a user is not created in reviewboard until after the user logs in once. This makes assigning privileges kind of difficult.

Re: AD Settings in RB
Thanks. Is this feature will get supported in near future?
