BACKGROUND
INFO:
I have two domains
setup in imail; a.xyz.com and b.xyz.com. Both are using external databases
for their users. The table each is looking at under "External User
Database" screen are "a_xyz" and "b_xyz" respectively. These are actually
Sql Server Views of the same table of users.
For examples, all
users are in a Users table. Some of the those users belong to domain
a.xyz.com and some to b.xyz.com If you do a "select * from a_xyz" you
would only get those users for that domain, and likewise for the
other.
PROBLEM:
Let's say I have a
user called "webmaster" on both domains but with different passwords. The
problem is when I set up the webmaster account in Outlook, it only will accept
the password for the first domain.
For
example:
I can set up
webmaster, a.xyz.com with the correct password for that account.
I CANNOT set up
webmaster, b.xyz.com with the correct password for that
account.
I CAN set up
webmaster, b.xyz.com with the a.xyz.com password.
Now, if I create a
totally new username unique to both sites on the b.xyz.com domain, Outlook
cannot authenticate.
If I change the
a_xyz Sql Server View to view the entire Users table, and not just the a_xyz
users, I am authenticated in Outlook.
So it appears that
even though I have two different domains, I can only authenticate against the
first one. Please let me know what I am doing wrong if otherwise, or help
me confirm otherwise.
Thanks!
