Re: More than 200 AD Security Groups

Hi Tomasz,

The reason for the 200 groups is that the application is using the groups as
granular permissions which then aggregates up into roles which also is
permissions groups.

The application is checking for permissions using standard .NET Framework
methods, so that should be ok.

Thanks

Henrik.

Hello,

I have an application which creates aprox. 200 AD security groups. I have
heard from a customer that there is a performance problem if you have
more that 200 ad groups, is this true?

Nope, there shouldn't be any if there isn't some badly written application
which is doing something weired with AD.

BTW - have You asked them what is a reason for 200 groups for single app?
