[Bug 1638603] [NEW] Identity LDAP does not support AD nested groups

 

Public bug reported:

Active Directory has a very specific mechanism to
handle nested groups.  LDAP queries need to look like this:

"(&(objectClass=group)(member=member:1.2.840.113556.1.4.1941:=CN=nwalnut,OU=Users,DC=EXAMPLE,DC=COM))"

If a deployment is using nested groups, three queries need to be
modified to support it:

list users in a group
list groups for a user
check if a user is in a group

Since all three are necessary, a single configuration value ensures
that the change is synchronized across all three calls.

** Affects: keystone
