Hi Gaetan,

You'll be disappointed to learn that the current LDAP plugin doesn't  
handle groups in LDAP (it uses XWiki groups) so you'll need to set the  
groups in XWiki.

There's a patch for using LDAP groups here:
http://jira.xwiki.org/jira/browse/XWIKI-1079

I'd love if someone could try the latest version of this patch and  
verify it works so that we can apply it.

Thanks
-Vincent
