Thanks for the help, I took the solution from
https://lists.internet2.edu/sympa/arc/shibboleth-users/2011-05/msg00583.htm
l.
but <ReturnAttributes>* +</ReturnAttributes> is not working for me, I have
to explicitly put isMemberOf, I can see the isMemberOf being pulled from
LDAP, I will see how I can script to only pull the required group, at
least for now, the problem is solved.
Thanks again for the great help from the list
