Hello,
At the customer site they use 5.0 sp1 with SQL 2005 DB with windows Authentication. They use the synchronise feature of NAV when they have made changes to the security.
They have an Active Directory with 2 domains that are trusted. On Windows (File, Printers, SQL) level everything is working. When a user of domain 1 is logged in he can see the resources available to him from domain 2, so everything except NAV is working correctly with the trusted domain users.
The users of the domain where NAV is installed in are working OK, but the users that are from the trusted domain cannot login into NAV ? :-k
We tried login in SQL 2005 with this same trusted user, and this was OK. (via SQL Management Studio). User is created in SQL and in NAV. Secuirity/Roles are set the same as for the own domain users.
Does anybody know what could be wrong ? Why that an Active Directory User of a trusted domain with the correct security and roles cannot login in NAV ?
Thanks
Danny

Thanks for your reply.
You are here refering to NAV windows authentication, right !
Is it somewhere documented that NAV only support Windows Authentication in the same Domain as the server and not any trusted domains ?
I need to show something to my customer to back this up
Thanks

Yes.
Also a clarification of Navision behavior. According to the documentation it will work with a user that is a member of the domain tree. (I never actually tried this. So maybe someone that has can comment if it actually works)
As soon as we set the extra security (Users and Computers) for the NAV server for the users of the other domain so that they could login. Everything was OK.
So NAV 5 does work correctly with Full or Partial trust
Thanks for your efforts
