Ernie,
Can you query the userdirectory or smpolicy dbs at all from the servers that will not 
connect using siteminder?  Using any odbc query tool try a 'select * from users' 
against userdirectory.  Similarly try 'select * from smuserdirectory4' against your 
smpolicy DSN.  Do they work?  If not what is the failure?  I would suspect this is a 
datasource configuration issue.

If your direct queries work and siteminder continues to fail then logging should show 
something.  

If the direct queries fail, what is the failure?

Subject: WHY!


Ok here is what I've done and is working on two other servers quit simular.

Server Hardware Config Info:
Compaq 380's
1 gig or ram
80 gig's of storage

Server Software Config Info:
Windows 2000 Server
Coldfusion 4.5 migrated to Coldfusion 5
Spectra 1.0 migrated to 1.01
All the Updated associated with the migration.

Now here is the problem, I have 4 boxes with this very config, 2 of which
talk  to the same userdirectory and smpolicy tables on the same database
(SQL Server 7). Now here is my problem I have two other boxes configured the
same way however, these boxes will not talk to the same userdirectory and
smpolicy tables. How can I have a centeral place for the users and
smpolicies? I want all four boxes reading from one userdirectory and
smpolicy tables, is this possable? if how.

Thanks in advanced
