Hi,

We just need to use the AD domain server as a user database to authenticate
users according to the domain sets IQP admin desires. I believe there should
be a way to connect to AD directory server and ask if
domain\usern...@password is valid or not! (the syntax may be different but I
guess you get what I mean).

Regards,

SZ
