RE : User authentication in multi repositories

Hi,
Yes, it's typically the object of the JAAS API.
You can configure the JAASRealm and develop your login modules to access
multiple LDAP services. You have to think at the rules to use to
authenticate sub-group of users in corporate domain and others in other
repository.

"An application," perhaps. ;)
"Tomcat's JNDI-based Realm, out of the box," likely no.

This thread came up a few weeks ago.  You can search the archive for
details; the highlights boiled down to: sync'ing up your AD setups[1] or
writing custom code.

[1] = I'm not an AD expert; but I understand one offered solution
involved creating some sort of "master" AD instance that delegated to
the others on the backend.
