# User Groups for Permissions
!!! info
When using Microsoft Active Directory, support for nested groups can be activated by using `NestedGroupOfNamesType()` instead of `GroupOfNamesType()` for `AUTH_LDAP_GROUP_TYPE`. You will also need to modify the import line to use `NestedGroupOfNamesType` instead of `GroupOfNamesType` .

* `is_staff` - Users mapped to this group are enabled for access to the administration tools; this is the equivalent of checking the "staff status" box on a manually created user. This doesn't grant any specific permissions.
* `is_superuser` - Users mapped to this group will be granted superuser status. Superusers are implicitly granted all permissions.
!!! warning
Authentication will fail if the groups (the distinguished names) do not exist in the LDAP directory.
# Troubleshooting LDAP
`supervisorctl restart netbox` restarts the Netbox service, and initiates any changes made to `ldap_config.py`. If there are syntax errors present, the NetBox process will not spawn an instance, and errors should be logged to `/var/log/supervisor/`.
