Teamsite and Active Directory

sachin_sharma78

My teamsite structure is like this :

I am validating users from Active directory for various roles in Teamsite 6.1. Lets say i have 10 users in a group in Active Diretory(e.g iw_editors).
Now one way to add the users for "EDITOR TOLE" is to add each user into "editor.uid".Can i add the whole group(iw_group) into uid file so that each user under this group will get editor role on teamsite.If this can't be done then can it be possible in some other way ?
Thanks in advance.

Hi,
I dont't know if it is possible to write groupnames into the *.uid files, but I think it doesn't work...

We programmed a little perl script which reads the group members out of our AD and then generates all *.uid files.
Therefor we use the perl module Win32API::Net, especially the function Win32API::Net::GroupGetUsers(...)

Hopes this helps
