Grouper Users - Open Discussion List

[eryaza01 <>]

Hi,
I have recently installed Grouper 1.5.3 QuickStart.
QuickStart was very easy to install following instructions in README 
files and it is very helpful for the first look but when it comes to 
customization it's not that easy to find how to make configuration 
changes.  Detailed recipes for some common configurations would be 
great.
In my case, I am trying to add one data source (ldap) just to start 
with.  I want to see if I could create groups using the Grouper and feed 
them into ldap.  My next steps would be shibbolizing the Grouper, 
testing import/export options, the client, possibly adding more data 
sources.
I have configured Grouper to pick up users from ldap but I would like to 
create dynamic groups as well, for example, create a group=Staff based 
on ldap eduPersonPrimaryAffiliation=Staff and after that provision the 
newly created dynamic group to ldap using ldappc.
Is it possible to do so using the Grouper user interface?  Or it works 
just the other way - creating a dynamic group in ldap first and 
exporting it (all countless members of the group?) to the Grouper next?
I see people mention having dynamic groups in Grouper but cannot find 
any information on how to do that.  Any hints?

Thank you,
