I don't know if anyone can help with this or not, I suspect it's not possible.
I have a scenario where I am using Active Directory for role and membership providers to authenticate a site and for reasons out of my control the users are in one OU and the groups are in a separate OU and cannot be merged. In addition the directory is so large that I can't point to the root of the AD as it does not return all the groups I need (I believe it times out and truncates the record set) and it includes lots of groups that should not be available to the system.
So I thought about using multiplexing and passing two AD connections, one for each OU, to each provider. However the authentication on this fails when calling GetUser and I think this is as it can't authenticate the user as the groups are in a separate OU.
So does anyone know if this can be done and if so how (custom role and membership providers maybe?)?
All suggestions welcomed.
Thanks in advance,
Mark
