I will take a look - the last time I saw the product it was used for "delegating roles using the inbuilt mechanisms of AD" (or similar marketing mumbo....) guess this is what happens when you badge all your wares with the same product name. I certainly was not aware of this added functionality and hence the total disregard for the product.

Take another look and see if it does what you want. You may want to also have a look at http://www.abridean.com/: <http://www.abridean.com/> to see if they can play in your scenario. That's a fairly common feature set anymore. I don't think you're asking for a tremendous amount of things based on that, and since you already have a metadirectory, it shouldn't be terribly complex. I haven't looked in a while, but Novell's eDirectory and Sun's identity manager should be something to look at as well.

Rules for email, account creation etc. The various systems all tie in to a metadirectory, which is then authorative for the company - the data is mastered in various locations. There is a self service interface for password resets and resource access. BMC have a product that ships out the box to do virtually all of this - I think based on the old calendra product suite. All I was looking for was alternative products that did the same. Active roles unless they have changed the scope of the product did not do this, but then I last saw the product a couple of years ago and when ever I now speak to a quest salesman - I give an alias as they are like leaches.

I know Quest has something that might be of interest, but more detail might be needed to better understand. In the meantime, check out their ActiveRoles product. There are several others, but that's one that jumps to mind based on the way you describe it. MIIS?Hmmm.... did you also get cookies with the kool-aid? Did you feelreally sleepy right after but just attribute it tosugar rush? Did the back of your necksting or itcha little when you woke up?;-) Don't get me wrong, MIIS has a place, but it can be a real PITA to get working. It's a significant investment in time and resources and it's not well understood in the industry. I can't begin to count how many environment I've been in and seen the services running and that's about it. Some real basic consuming of information and then....nada. Nothing more. -ajm On 5/25/06, Carlos Magalhaes <[EMAIL PROTECTED]: <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]> : <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]: <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]> > > wrote: They changed it again (Just checked and you 100% right :)) C Tomasz Onyszko wrote: > On Thu, 25 May 2006 11:53:43 +0200, Carlos Magalhaes wrote > >> Not yet no but we both know thats in the pipe line for SP2.
