Haris As I understand it you will need to "migrate" each of your users from the "DEVELOPMENT\harry" format to the "ldapmembershipprovider:harry" format. This can be done using the following command: STSADM -o migrateuser -oldlogin "DEVELOPMENT\harry" -newlogin "ldapmembershipprovider:harry" -ignoresidhistory In other words there must be a one-to-one correlation between each authenticating user and their corresponding user profile. I suspect you will be able to create a script to do the above in bulk ... or alternatively look at using a different approach altogether (such as MS ILM - which I use) to manage your MOSS user base :) Cheers

My FBA uses LDAP against the Active Directory. I have configured everything, and it all works fine. However do I have to re-add every single user? for example: I have a user "DEVELOPMENT\harry" and a user "ldapmembershipprovider:harry". If "DEVELOPMENT\harry" is added to sharepoint but "ldapmembershipprovider:harry" is not, I can successfully log in when Windows Authentication is enabled, however I cannot log in when FBA is enabled (Access is denied). In order to log into FBA i must add "ldapmembershipprovider:harry" to sharepoint. Is there anyway to link the accounts? Import the accounts? so I can switch from Forms based authentication to windows authentication without having to add users? Please note: I am aware that you can add a group of users, but there are still over 100 groups in the sharepoint site, so I was hoping to not have to add any of them.
