[rt-users] Ldap Import and Groups

[Giuseppe Sollazzo]

Ah, ok.
The docs say "prevents users from being added to any *additional* group" 
I had supposed it was referring to auto creation of ldap groups. That 
"additional" is a bit misleading, if it could go in the next version 
that would be great.


Thanks,
G
