Hmm, it looks like there are a few places where it would be good to
include the group mapping functionality.

Ah - that was my next avenue if I couldn't get this to work :-(

Oh ok, I tried security = user, but then I couldn't log on with domain
accounts.  Interestingly enough, even with security = server I couldn't
either.  I don't have ADS support compiled in, so I'm using
security = domain.

I'll be very interested to hear if you discover anything!

Thanks again,
Adam.
