Author Give permissions to CMS with universal groups

Hi,

I hold my permission groups for our intranet systems in a native AD.
Now I had to change the group scope from Domain local to Universal,
because I must grant permissions to multiple domains. But when I change
my groups, the permission for the MCMS did not work any longer.
Is there a problem with using universal groups for granting permissions
in MCMS. It is MCMS 2002 with SP1.

Best Regards

Hi Tarajan,

you need to ensure that the MCMS system account has rights to read and
enumerate the members in the group.
So a valid trust relationship between the domain holding the group and the
domain the MCMS system account comes from is required.

Cheers,
Stefan

Hi Stefan,

but in the first step I change only the group scope to universal. I did
not change the members of the groups. They are still from the same
domain, in which also the MCMS system account is.
I don't know, why I get a problem. Could there be a wrong configuration
in AD preventing universal groups to function properly?

Hi,

actually I never tested with universal groups myself - so I cannot comment
on this in detail.
You should open a support case for this.

Cheers,
Stefan
