Adding a Adam group to SQL Server

Hello all, I 'm not sure if this is the right forum for this, and I apologies if so...

But in a nut shell I'm attempting to grant SQL server access to a ADAM user group account within an ADAM instance.

I have set up the ADAM instance. Added the ADAM user to an ADAM security group. now I need to add that user group to a SQL instance that resides on our AD domain ( non-ADAM instance.) obviously when I attempt to view all available domains within SQL security manager, all I see is our standard domain, I can't seem to figure out how to make the ADAM domain visible to our AD domain.

Any Thoughts?

Thanks

Unfortunately I am not familiar with ADAM, and given that there hasn't been any response yet I would assume most people in this forum have limited or no experience on this topic either.

I would suggest asking in the Windows or AD forums and find out if there is a difference in ADAM authetntication with respect of regular ADs.

Not possible. ADAM is not a network OS like AD.... ADAM groups aren't available to SQL server ...

what you can do is: If all your users exist in AD and your ADAM is domain joined, create the groups in AD instead and use them in ADAM as well. ADAM can use AD security principals for Authentication and Authorization.

thanks
