RE: [Zope-PAS] groups/roles and PAS

[Ben Mason]

Andy,

Add the role using the role manager plugin within PAS as well as the
security tab on the plone root.

You should then be able to map these roles within the LDAP Multi Plugin.

I have searched and posted in plone-users and I can't find an answer to
this question on using PAS and ldap:
How do you add custom zope roles, and then map them to ldap groups?
 
I work in a university setting and have the need for finer grained
role-control..
 
Thanks!
Andy

background:
I have an acl_users folder (PAS) in my Plone site and inside that, I
have an LDAPMultiPlugin. Inside the plug-in is an LDAPUserFolder. I feel
that it is configured correctly because all my domain un/pw's work, and
I can search for users and list all my groups. 
 
I figured out that it is preferable to map my LDAP groups to Zope roles
by using the portal_role_manager, and it is working - as long as I use
the built-in Zope roles.
 
My requirement is to add custom roles within Zope and map my LDAP roles
to those. 
 
In the past I added custom roles from the security tab at the root of my
Plone site. This method does not seem to work anymore. What is the
preferred method of adding custom Zope roles and mapping them to LDAP
groups?
