Thanks Zane for your reply
My understanding was that with keystone federation once you have a token issued 
by one keystone the other one respect it and there is no need to 
re-authenticate with the second keystone. My thinking was more of changing the 
remote stack resource to have in the context the heat_url of the other node ,I 
am not sure if credentials are needed here.
We are currently building in our lab multi cloud setup with keystone federation 
and I will check if my understating is correct, I am planning for propose a BP 
for this once will be clear
Thanks again
Tomer
