You can use smart referrals to pull in an organisation unit from another LDAP/AD server. That means you can do a single query to find users across several domains. In our case this is a client's own LDAP server. Part of the configuration is to set the bind dn and password to access the foreign server. On a service restart these authentication details are forgotten so the foreign directory is not usable.
