Defined in:
lib/github/ldap/membership_validators/active_directory.rb

Overview

Validates membership using the ActiveDirectory “in chain” matching rule.

The 1.2.840.113556.1.4.1941 matching rule (LDAP_MATCHING_RULE_IN_CHAIN) “walks the chain of ancestry in objects all the way to the root until it finds a match”. Source: msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/aa746475(v=vs.85).aspx

This means we have an efficient method of searching membership even in nested groups, performed on the server side.
