When a user attempts to connect to the server, Sysax server will query the windows subsystem to identify account and group permissions. Remote UNC paths should be supported. The URL that you referred to did refer to creating custom user accounts that are specific to Sysax Server. But I did ask our developers about support for AD groups and they were wondering if there were any applications that did support AD groups explicitly. They seemed to think that this would have to be supported implicitly by Windows. If this is something that other vendors are actively supporting, our developers are open to implementing this ...
