I can make this work for individual accounts, but no go for groups. Doing this for individual accounts is not an acceptable option. What a kludge. I am having the same problem as Richard.

We're a large organisation, and our AD structure does not allow me to have a top level OU called KVM, nor does it allow me to place the Computer Object in the same OU as groups. I have an OU further along the chain "Ou=x, Ou=y, DC=my.domain.com" and have added the computer object and user accounts to the group within that OU and configured the notes section as described in the article above. No joy! Is there any way to get this working given my AD restrictions? I’m running into issues configuring the group attribute for Appliance mode.

I was about to throw in the friggin towel. Integrating LDAP shouldn't be this damned hard, but the Avocent crew seem to have succeeded in porking their directions up completely. Their documentation on LDAP read as though it were translated into English from a Chinese translation of the original Polish. Jezus, thank you for figuring this out!
