public Class NTSidGroupPrincipal

extends NTSid
Class Inheritance
This class extends NTSid and represents one of the groups to which a Windows NT user belongs.

Principals such as this NTSidGroupPrincipal may be associated with a particular Subject to augment that Subject with an additional identity. Refer to the Subject class for more information on how to achieve this. Authorization decisions can then be based upon the Principals associated with a Subject.
