I need your help.
I have an application that connects to AD for user information. More specific, the application reads user information like displayName (and a few other attributes) upon login and then checks the group membership based on the user attribute memberOf
This is all fine when the application connects to AD using LDAP/389. In this specific scenario, the application should connect to Global Catalog. And as memberOf isn't available in Global Catalog for the user object, my application can't find any groups for a specific user
Can somebody tell me about the impacts of adding memberOf to Global Catalog
The network is a global AD implementation. It has 30 domains, and 120+ sites all over the world. Some of these sites has pretty small WAN links. Currently, it's a Windows 2000 Native implementation. It will be upgraded in the next few months to Windows 2003.
Will the upgrade change anything in this case
Regards
Mikael
