Grouper Users - Open Discussion List

["William G. Thompson, Jr." <>]

Hi Jay,

Reflecting authorization policy from Grouper into a directory (AD,
OpenLDAP, etc) is a pretty standard setup. There a few options for the
provisioning part depending on your
local situation. Please do have a look at the Grouper Deployment Guide
if you haven't already.

Best,
Bill
