           Summary: Metacat Authenticated Query fails for specific
                    user/group/dataset combinations
           Product: Kepler
           Version: 1.x dev
          Platform: Other
        OS/Version: All
            Status: NEW
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: data access
        AssignedTo: tao at nceas.ucsb.edu
        ReportedBy: soong at nceas.ucsb.edu
         QAContact: kepler-dev at kepler-project.org


The problem affects several datasets with similar access permissions, such as
judithk.769.12.

These datasets are not publicly accessible, but access is granted to the
kruger-tpc group: 
[read] cn=kruger-tpc,o=NCEAS,dc=ecoinformatics,dc=org

My login is part of the group, and I can view the datasets through the KNB
webpage and through Morpho.

If I enable the Metacat Authenticated Query in Kepler and provide my login
credentials, I do not see the datasets.  Regetz confirmed this, but he was able
to search for a private dataset of his own.  Derik also confirmed that he was
able to access some private data.  The problem occurs on OSX, linux, and
Windows for both 1.x dev and 1.0.0.
