Example of one authentication provider managing multiple domains in a single
forest
In this example, the environment includes a forest with one top domain and two
subdomains. A single authentication provider manages all the domains.
In this example:
u
The port for the Global Catalog (central repository of domain information for the
forest) in the server URL is 3268.
u
The domains to be managed are the top domain, security.vipr.local, and the
subdomains east.security.vipr.local, and west.security.vipr.local.
u
The manager user on the Global Catalog has read access on the search base.
u
The search base is high enough in the hierarchy that it encompasses the subpaths to
include east and west subdomains. In this case, the common path between
users.security.vipr.local, users.east.security.vipr.local, and
users.west.security.vipr.local is security.vipr.local.
u
The search scope parameter is set to Subtree.
