Using a new AD for proxy with two differents domains
-
Thursday, April 26, 2012 9:54 PMI need to "integrate" the authentication between two different domains (A and B), and the authentication request will come from an application. In this scenario I thought of creating a new domain (C) to use as a proxy, where the application will prompt for this new domain (C) authentication and will be responsible for making the query fields destinations (A and B). I can send only login onto the domain C and it automatically fetches the information Authenticating A and B or is mandatory send the login @ domain?

Domain A - 2003
Domain B - 2008
Domain C - 2008

Hello,
i cannot understand your need for a 3rd domain to logon over to another one. Create a trust between domain A and domain B and you can access resources in the other domain.
You can also think about using AD LDS instead modifying the schema for the application server:

Tks for answer!
The domain A and B belong to different companies that will share the same system, but not the administering of the AD. For this reason I can not configure the trust relationship between A and B.

Hi,
To perform this procedure, you must be a member of the Domain Admins group (in the forest root domain) or the Enterprise Admins group in Active Directory, or you must have been delegated the appropriate authority. As a security best practice, consider using Run as to perform this procedure.
If you are a member of the Incoming Forest Trust Builders group, you can create one-way, incoming forest trusts to this forest.
For details:

In addition, there is a useful article for your reference:

Hope this helps!

There has to be a trust relationship established from A-C and B-C, even though you can't configure trust relationship b/w A-B. When there is request from domain C, it can make a referral from C either the request has to go to domain A or B. Why don't you use ADFS for this?

Wednesday, May 02, 2012 6:29 PMI know how the trust should be created, but the question is after this established relationship, the domain C can find the domain of a user without informing? That is, sending to the C Domain to authenticate a user without informing the domain, it will do the search in the domains A and B or inform the "user@domain" is mandatory?

If you don't want this, you can configure Selective authentication which is more secure and provides restrictive access to the specific users given explicit permission.
