there is a lot of methodologies to package a customlib, including  
tlds, java class, and jsps)inside or outside the JahiaCode, with pros  
and cons, too long to discuss here.

But you must follow at minima these points:
1.you need to declare a specific TLD with a distinct shortname, with  
the description of each tags and the packaged path of the java code's  
relative
2.this tld(s) must be deployed from the source location by your  
specific compile/building/deploy process inside the WEB-INF of the  
Jahia webapp
3.you must declare inside your jsp(s) your intention to use tags of  
the taglib by a declaration like this:
<%@ taglib uri="jahiaHtmlLib" prefix="jahiaHtml" %>
4. you need to restart your tomcat

as starting point, i suggest you to create inside the webapp/WEB-INF/ 
etc/taglibs your tld, and create you code inside a folder in the  
org.jahia.taglibs, this way as you hotdeploy using maven, you dont  
need to write any specific goal nor ant task, even this approach have  
serious drawback on a long-time.

Sanjay, please try to test your criteria inside the administration  
gui (group search) to double-check if your ldap is ok(if needed you  
can activate debug in the log4j.xml.
if this fail too, try to check with a external ldap client with  
similar critrerium, otherwise there is a a bug in the  
grouplistContainer, you will be very kind to enter a jira with a  
maximum of information (trace, etc).
