Thanks.
Does the AD-LDAP connection provide AD groups to allow user "filtering" ?

      Wow.  CIstron was effectively dead 20 years ago.

      Likely only PAP then.  But you'll have to double-check the packets.  Every piece of vendor equipment does something magical and special.

      Odds are that you can just use PAP, and connect to AD via LDAP.  And also check admin group privileges!

    	if (LDAP-Group != "admin") {
    		reject
    	}
    	... else check passwords, etc.
