In our current implementation we are also multi-tenant, and we do not store passwords in ARS. We are authenticating externally, and our authentication chaining mode is ARS-Area.
Hope that helps.

I have read in the guides somewhere that unless both the user name and password are stored in the local AR Server, the users are not considered registered users. In Multi-tenancy guest users are not allowed (and we have multi-tenancy turned on). I want to know what are my options. Do I have to import the password as well. I don't think its doable because LDAP would be encrypting them and even if I do import them AR Server needs to know how to decrypt them. Is my analogy of the situation right? if so what can I do. If not please correct me. -- Sivarama __Platinum Sponsor: www.rmsportal.com ARSlist: "Where the Answers Are" html___ This message is subject to and does not create or vary any contractual relationship between TuringSMI, SMI Technologies, SMI Telco, its subsidiaries or affiliates and you.
