The penny drops: now I understand what you mean.

This functionality would be useful for more than just LDAP: you might want
to use two different flat file databases, or maybe you want to auth
someone in LDAP and someone else in SQL.

This is really an AAA-wide question rather than an LDAP specific question.

Anyone know how difficult this would be to do in the current AAA structure?
