Assigning a role to an AD group

Is it possible to assign a security role to an existing AD group.  we have some admins in a group that will not have a BES device.  Ive looked at the AD group sync tool but that just looked messy and didnt seem to do what I wanted.

 

Thanks.

Re: Assigning a role to an AD group

Hi worb,
I have the same experience; it seems not possible anymore to give BES permissions to an AD security group like it was in BES 4.1.
I had to add every single admin through "Create an administrator user".

Can anyone put some light into this?
Thanks!
Alex
