LDAP authentication between forests

[Guest]

We have an application that uses LDAP authentication and works just fine. We
need to have users in another forest use the same application. How do we set
it up. Putting a trust in place between the forests does not seem to work.
Can anyone help?

It completely depends on the implementation of the application. For a true LDAP
app, you shouldn't need a trust though. Just know the correct names of things to
bind to, etc.

Joe, can you be more specific or point to a resource that can? Thanks

Not really unless you can be more specific with what you are doing.

About the best I can say right now is look at the ldap_bind API call.
