Found a thread from 2004 ("External authentication") asking about the possibility of tying that in with ELog and answer was "Not yet". With time past, any chance this is now possible? I didn't see any more info on that since. 

I'd like to explore using AD to set up/manage groups for ELog authentication. Alternatively, is there currently another way with ELog to manage groups?

Regards.

External authentication is still on the list. But I'm not sure what is the best way: LDAP, PAM, Kerberos. Should work under windows and linux. Unfortunately I won't have time in the next few months to implement that, but it stays high on my todo list.
