Hi,

We have a server in a domain called ADOM but we need to authenticate against BDOM. using dc=bdom,dc=somewhere,dc=here does not work. Is there a way of specifiying a different host to authenticate to?  This is a managed server and i am not incontrol and cannot get it moved to another domain.


Any help appreciated.

Is there a trust between the domains or are they two completely seperate domains?

In my testing if the server wasn't part of the domain or there was at least a trust between them (so that I could use impersonation) it wouldn't work. This is part of the DirectoryServices class from Microsoft and it makes sense when you consider it.

Hi Mike,

First thanks for your prompt reply. I forwarded your questions to the server managers and this was the response:

"There is currently a selective one way trust. The users have been given authenticate access to the server (sufficient that IIS can authenticate the user against the other domain to provide access)."

Do you have any other recommendations that could make this work?

Is a user from BDOM allowed to have permissions set on a file on the server? IE: Can you create a simple text file in the DNN directory and then under the files security settings give read/write/modify/whatever to a user from BDOM? If you can then you should be able to use impersonation in your web.config to get it to work. Impersonation is covered in the provider documentation.

Hi Mike,

I dont know how the managed servers are setup but created a virtual lan with 3 domains and the server. Setup 1 way outgoing trust and used impersonation like you said. I found I did have to add this account to the local administrators box. Once this was done I was able to sign into the system using domain username and passwords.

Again, thanks for your prompt replies and confirming the direction I was going down.
