I'll response to your question in a different angle than Misagh did...
assuming you meant multiple AD domains, like student and staff being in
different domains, but still an AD ldap.

There are issues with using LPPE against multiple AD domains (if the
domains are in the same forest then the global catalog ldap connection
can be used to potentially get around these limitations). The two places
that I recall there being issues are if the urls to the self service
password change application are different. LPPE gives you a single URL
to configure. If each domain has it own self service password (re)set
application then there is an issue.

The other is that the password expiration warning only works for a
single domain. The reason is that AD doesn't actually have a user
attribute that defines when a password expires. It is calculated based
on when the password was last set and a value in the Group Policy. Upon
successful authentication, the login-webflow.xml calculates when the
expiration is due and presents a warning view to the user. The
calculation doesn't know which authN source authenticated the user and
will just use whichever one it is connected to in the lppe
configuration. So if a username exists in both domains, then things get
interesting depending upon the status of the account in both domains.

States/messages like locked account, must change password upon next
login, bad workstation (if anyone actually uses it), etc should work
fine with multiple domains because the status is returned when the authn
is tested against the ldap.

I hope that helps.
