LDAP Sync : Groups / Sub-groups and users

As we transition to the new Hyland Community, some post links may be temporarily disrupted as we finalize redirects. We apologize for the inconvenience and are working to resolve this as quickly as possible. Details.

I need to import the structure of my groups /users in my LDAP to Alfresco.

An example of my structure :
Root-Group
   +++ group1
      —- user1
      —- user2
      —- user3
      ++++++ group11
         ——— user4
         +++++++++ group111
         ————– user5
      ++++++ group12
         ——— user7
         ——— user8
      +++ group2
         ——— user9

Is it possible? if yes, how?
Note that I'm using Alfresco v3.2 community.

Yes it's possible. Just configure the LDAP authentication subsystem to synchronize with your LDAP server. The synchronizer imports all your users and groups and respects parent-child relationships between groups. The groups will be navigable through the 'root groups' (those with no parent groups) in the Alfresco administration console.

Have a look at http://wiki.alfresco.com/wiki/Alfresco_Authentication_Subsystems#LDAP and/or these forums for how to configure LDAP synchronization.
