[FIXED JENKINS-11668] Turns out tokenGroups attribute doesn't pick up distribution groups.

I couldn't find authoritative info from Microsoft on this, but the experiment confirms it, and there are a few mention of that on the internet:

Works like a charm!
thanks a lot.

I upgraded to 1.23 today and getting same error as earlier. I am in LTS 1.424.1. Attached exception found in log.

+1 for ragesh_nair comments. I am also getting the same exception running against Windows 2008 Server RC2.

Confirmed that v1.24 of the plugin resolves this issue. Thanks!
