What are the Groups types available in active directory ?

Question

Has anyone in here successfully integrated SVN with Active Directory for user authentication? We are currently using FreeIPA and user account management is the bane of my existence. If anyone has or knows of any documentation for integrating Active Directory with SVN (preferably 1.9 since we are going to upgrade to that version) that would be much appreciated.

Answer 1

There are two types of groups in Active Directory:
1. Distribution groups
2. Security groups.

You can use distribution groups to create e-mail distribution lists and security groups to assign permissions to shared resources.
