Hi Jeff,
We are very interested in adding support for this.  It would help greatly if we 
could get to more concrete examples of how more enterprises organize their LDAP 
directories.  The challenge here is an efficient implementation that works for 
most common use cases.
Kevin.

Subject: Fwd: LDAP Nested OU support


Hi folks,
     Wanted to confirm the followin:
"Knox Gateway provides HTTP BASIC authentication against an LDAP user 
directory. It currently supports only a single Organizational Unit (OU) and 
does not support nested OUs."

if this is true? If so what would it take to support Nested OU? Is this a 
limitation of Shiro Provider?

It is very common for enterprises to organize their LDAP directory by nested 
OUs.

I can open a Jira, and investigate a solution to contribute to the community.

Thanks,
                      Jeff Rodriguez
