You can find all groups by name I believe.  Are you using the API or web 
services?  In web services you do this:

java -jar grouperClient.jar --operation=findGroupsWs 
--queryFilterType=FIND_BY_STEM_NAME --stemName=: 
--stemNameScope=ALL_IN_SUBTREE --debug=true

POST /grouper-ws_v2_2/servicesRest/v2_2_002/groups HTTP/1.1
Connection: close
Authorization: Basic xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
User-Agent: Jakarta Commons-HttpClient/3.1
Host: grouperdemo.internet2.edu:-1
Content-Length: 201
Content-Type: text/xml; charset=UTF-8

<WsRestFindGroupsRequest>
  <wsQueryFilter>
    <queryFilterType>FIND_BY_STEM_NAME</queryFilterType>
    <stemName>:</stemName>
    <stemNameScope>ALL_IN_SUBTREE</stemNameScope>
  </wsQueryFilter>
</WsRestFindGroupsRequest>


Or API:

    GrouperSession grouperSession = GrouperSession.startRootSession();
    Stem rootStem = StemFinder.findRootStem(grouperSession);
    Set<Group> allGroups = new 
GroupFinder().assignParentStemId(rootStem.getId()).assignStemScope(Scope.SUB).findGroups();

Thanks,
Chris

Subject: [grouper-dev] Getting the set of all groups in 2.2+

Hello,

I'm new to developing against grouper and have a question regarding getting a
set of all groups.  From what I understand, previous versions of Grouper had a
"base" GrouperType associated with each group, and could use
GroupFinder.findAllByType, passing the base group.  In 2.2+ that is now
deprecated.  Is there a simple alternative way to get a set of all groups in
the system that I can iterate over, perhaps by stem?  Thank you in advance for
any assistance.
