Hi. Sorry for the late response.
They AD-groups are global security groups. We've not quite decided on whether to use existing AD-groups or create new ones aimed at the linux environment.

Hi Rich.What are the AD groups used for in AD? Are they Security Groups or Distribution Groups or both? Are they Global or Local (or Universal)? We're just trying to get a sense of what people use Groups for on both sides.
I haven't worked with the WindowsSync feature much myself, so I'm not sure about the group type details your requesting. But what we're working on is syncing AD groups over to DS, and use the group member information to build our own nis netgroups. These netgroups are then used by PAM to authenticate users.

We're currently investigating the group sync feature of Windows
Sync, and we wanted to know how it is deployed. Do you sync
groups? What types of groups? Security or Distribution? Global
or Local? Do the groups have "meaning" in both AD and Fedora DS,
or only in one side?
