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!

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?
