== Extension:LDAPGroups ==

This extension provides an way to map group membership information from a directory service (such as LDAP or Active Directory) to MediaWiki groups using the interface provided by LDAPProvider.

=== Configuration ===

There are two synchronization mechanisms:
* Mapped: "Sync only specifically defined groups and apply a mapping"
* All: "Sync all groups from LDAP, except from some that are managed by the wiki itself"
