Authentication with two Windows Domains

[benjaminm]

Hi,

I have two domains, DOMA and DOMB. The Filemaker-Server 7 is member of DOMA and is cofigured to authenticate with users of DOMA. Now I want that users of DOMB can also authenticate on the Filemaker-Server. Is it possible to enter two directory services in the Filemaker config???

Thank you

You don't have to enter *any* directory service info in the FMS config to make EA work. If you did, it does not have any effect on authentication. The DS tab on the FMS config is just for information purposes.

To make authentication work in your scenario you need to make a trust relationship on the AD level between your two domains. This will have implications for all domain related things so do read up on what's involved and what it does.
