      When an LDAP repository is down, the message "group not found" appears next to local (hibernate) groups in the Administration > Global Permissions page.

      To replicate:
      1) configure LDAP successfully
      2) Shut down LDAP repository
      3) Clear cache
      4) View Administration > Global Permissions

      The UI should show a more diagnostic message like "LDAP repository unavailable", not an error message for internal groups.

      The internal groups work in this scenario - it appears to be just a problem in the UI.
