Description
Description
Whenever we create groups in Ldap with names with combined cased letters separated by hyphens -, then it is converted to completely lower-cased name when we sync them with OC.
Steps to reproduce
- create a group with name
Case-Sensitive-Groupon Ldap server (e.g. https://127.0.0.1:8443/) - sync new group with OC using occ
- view user in oc users list or using occ
eg: occ group:list
Expected output
- A group with name
Case-Sensitive-Groupshould be listed
Actual output
- A group with name
case-sensitive-groupis listed

Research direction
Reproduce the issue against the LDAP server at https://127.0.0.1:8443/ and run the group synchronization with occ. Start by tracing the group-sync entry point and compare the LDAP group name with the result from occ group:list. Done means mixed-case names such as Case-Sensitive-Group remain unchanged in ownCloud.
