Hi again Karl,

Just have another question. Here we have a scenario that groups in extranet AD 
domain have members from intranet AD domain. Is is any way to get those group 
being expanded and user see the documents given access to those groups?

Regards
Kambiz

Hi Karl,

Thanks a lot for the information. I added second AD domain to the same Active 
Directory authority and it works fine now :)

Regards
Kambiz

I should also add that it is really helpful for diagnosing problems of this 
kind to use curl, e.g.:

curl 
http://localhost:8345/mcf-authority-service/[email protected]

... and see what gets returned.  If you see DEAD_AUTHORITY in the list of acls, 
don't expect to see any documents from the associated authority group.


Thanks,
Karl
