Group Type Set To Both Security & Distribution

Hello,

I was wondering if there was a way to set an AD group to both Security and Distribution. This group is initially a Distribution Group, which is on the "Distribution List" in AD, but this group will not show up in FIM under Distribution Groups. I believe my FIM environment is not configured to provision Distribution Groups over, only Security groups are. So unless I change this group to "Group Type = Security" then it will appear on FIM. So before I configure for Distribution Groups to be synced over, is it likely for a group to be both Security and Distribution?

1. Any Security Group can be Mail Enabled, which means it satisfies both requirements.

2. If you are using FIM, there is no difference between a DL and SG. The reason why you don't see this group in FIM, is because the OU is not selected.  So, you don't need to change the DL, simply work out the FIM details.
