However I don't think it gives you the ability to log into the wrong domain. I think you have to authenticate with your own domain controller, then the credentials work with the other domain. My problem is that I don't know who will be in each domain at any particular time. I just want to accept the password if the user exists and it is correct for either one. > The only snag that may exist is if the Active Directory was set up in > "Native Mode", the security permissions are such that your NT PDC will not > be able to communicate with the AD.

It is working in compatible mode and the trust is working. But if it is supposed to be possible for a user in the other domain to log into the wrong pdc I am doing something wrong. -- Les Mikesell les@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx _______________________________________________ Pam-list@xxxxxxxxxx https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/pam-list
