 How to associate an Ldap user to a Pentaho group/role?

Hi,

I can't figure out how the user-roles association works during LDAP authentication.


It seems it is managed by these parameters:

populator.convertToUpperCase=false
populator.groupRoleAttribute=cn
populator.groupSearchBase=OU\=Team-XXXX,OU\=XXXXUsers,DC\=xxxx,DC\=org
populator.groupSearchFilter=(member\={0})
populator.rolePrefix=
populator.searchSubtree=false

Is it a user attribute on Ldap that identifies the role he will have on Pentaho?

Do I have to create the groups on Pentaho or they are created during the LDAPauthentication?

Is it possible to ensure that users, after LDAP authentication, are included in a group already present on Pentaho (BIUsers, for example) ? 

Thank you very much for your suggestions.

Claudio B.
