How to Create a Group that Will Work with LDAP?

Forms Version 9

In Forms 9.2, when I go to Configuration-> System Security-> Participants, I see two rows with a Type of Group. I'm not sure where these 2 groups are coming from as they are the only ones listed. How do I create an object in Active Directory so that the group will show up? Also, I noticed that I cannot assign a license to a group, so how are they used?

Forms will synchronize the objects in Active Directory which value of objectClass has "group" as Group.  You can refer to  http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/aa545347(v=cs.70).aspx  for how to create a group in active directory.

Participant license are assigned per user not group. The usage of participant group is when you assign access right for a process, you can assign it to a group instead of users so that all the users belong to the group can inherit right from the group.

That makes sense now. This causes a problem in our setup because our Groups are in a different OU than our Users and since we are already pulling in over 10,000 objects from the User OU, we can't go up to the top in order to encompass the Groups OU without additional performance problems in Forms.
