Read Only, with Local Groups

LDAP users, groups and memberships are retrieved from your directory server and can only be modified via your directory server. You cannot modify LDAP users, groups or memberships via the application administration screens. However, you can add groups to the internal directory and add LDAP users to those groups.

There is a known issue with Read Only, with Local Groups in Confluence that may apply to you. See CONF-28621 - Getting issue details... STATUS

Read/Write
