Uh, this is not "integrating with Active Directory" -- it's an answer to a totally different question. One can use the ODBC userbase option in a variety of situations. It is well-documented and generally works as advertised. > If you are really keen you can write ASP or CF code to access the > LDAP, but you lose a lot of flexibility. Using an existing directory as the directory service for directory-enabled applications is the best practice. It goes without saying that standalone SQL back ends are endlessly flexible; however, they are not the best fit when integration is the goal. Furthermore, true primary/secondary failover would not be possible with SQL unless one's SQL servers were clustered, a considerable expense, or if all user management interfaces used "two-phase commit." Having primary and secondary servers as DCs in the same AD domain, however, provides built-in and robust userbase replication. --Sandy ------------------------------------ Sanford Whiteman, Chief Technologist Broadleaf Systems, a division of Cypress Integrated Systems, Inc. e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] SpamAssassin plugs into Declude! http://www.imprimia.com/products/software/freeutils/SPAMC32/download/release/ Defuse Dictionary Attacks: Turn Exchange or IMail mailboxes into IMail Aliases! http://www.imprimia.com/products/software/freeutils/exchange2aliases/download/release/ http://www.imprimia.com/products/software/freeutils/ldap2aliases/download/release/ To Unsubscribe: http://www.ipswitch.com/support/mailing-lists.html List Archive: http://www.mail-archive.com/imail_forum%40list.ipswitch.com/ Knowledge Base/FAQ: http://www.ipswitch.com/support/IMail/
