Hi, I've already posted this in a different group, but I've received no
reponses...

-------

I have some load balanced IIS servers, which get content and .NET
applications from clustered file servers using UNC shares. The content within
the shares are secured using NTFS file permissions. I've turned on delegation
so that the IIS servers are allowed to delegate to the file servers, and this
is working.

We have a seperate (but trusted) domain, users from this domain have also
been granted rights to the files on the file servers, however they are being
denied access to the content through the IIS servers. I can only assume that
the delegation is only working for users which are on the same domain as the
servers?

If it is not possible, this will seriously mess up how some of our
applications work... so I'm hoping someone has a solution.

Hello Paul,

as long as there is a path of trust between all parties - this should work.

Make sure that Kerberos is used between browser and web server, e.g. by inspecting
the security log - you should see a log on event for the client - the authentication
package has to be Kerberos (instead of NTLM) - or use a sniffer like www.ethereal.com
so see if Kerberos Service Ticket Requests are being made. For delegation
to work you need Kerb auth all the way through.

That must be the problem, I'm seeing NTLM as the authentication package. I've
tried some things from your security briefs, but the package is still NTLM...
I can see this taking me a while!
