It seems that despite being called the util:User element that it was actually able to locate an ActiveDirectory Group. I just left many of the attributes blank and told it to not create or update the user.
I don't have the C++ chops to extend these but there is another thread about creating interfaces for DTF classes to enable unit test mocking. I'd be willing to contribute that if you would like. ---------------------------------------- From: "Rob Mensching" <r...@robmensching.com> Sent: Saturday, January 07, 2012 11:17 AM To: chr...@iswix.com, "General discussion for Windows Installer XML toolset." <wix-users@lists.sourceforge.net> Subject: Re: [WiX-users] Add Domain Group to Local Group That's all that is supported today.

Problem is I see the util::GroupRef element only allows util::User as a parent and not util::Group as a parent. I'd like to be able to run this MSI through SCCM and pass Domain/Name in as secure custom properties and use them as formatted attributes in the Group Element. Does anyone know why this is? I'm sure I can write a DTF custom action but I'm trying not to. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- -- Write once. Port to many.
