Group Assignment
LDAP groups are a mechanism for assigning privileges in TRAC and SVN, as well as mappings to the basic ZopeRoles, as part of the Pleiades SingleSignOn mechanism.
Group membership of Pleiades users is managed through:
- On the Pleiades staging server: http://icon.stoa.org:8080/plone/acl_users/localhost_ldap_plugin/acl_users/manage_main
Note: do not confuse these groups with Plone roles, which are managed through Plone itself.
