Yes, thanks, I now remember seeing the hook, and thinking to maybe call
groups by domain name, make groups, and then modify the permissions
page in kronolith to use this to display only usernames/email inside
that domain. I'm still learning my way around the modules and this is
just a very uneducated idea, I will have more time this weekend to work
on it.

Any thoughts on the second part of my question (making conf-auth*basedn
"dynamic" somehow)? From my unfamiliar side it seems like that would be
a more generic solution that might then work for all modules, instead
of trying to hacking Kronolith, and then maybe another module will need
the same.

It is interesting that no one came accross this before, how do all the
people work this out? Or perhaps most installations have just one or a
couple of domains, and its ok then to just see all the users.
I forgot to say, running HEAD here.
Thanks for answering me.

Mark
