Virtual groups

Here you can add groups not related to LDAP. There are two occasions where you can use this:

If you have developed a custom JAAS portlet where you would like to match the login with something other than LDAP (e.g. database).
If using the login method CAS, all users logging in with this method will belong to a virtual group named CAS. (The identification name must be CAS for the virtual group).

You need to activate virtual groups beneath the tab Authentification configuration. The buttons (plus sign, minus sign and the properties button) will then become activated.

Add

Click the plus sign in order to add a virtual group. A new window will open:

Identification name (JAAS)

Here you add the name used in the JAAS portlet that you would like to match the log in with.
