We have a multi forest multi domain structure in our Active Directory. We are now testing/comparing Searchdaimon against othe open source ES.
If you connect to ldap on port 389 you see only the content of the domain of the DC. if you want to query outside of the domain and inside the forest you need ‘referrals’ handling. Is this supported?
If it isn’t a solution could be that you connect to the global catalog (port 3268) instead if the ldap port. This is also interesting because querying this way goes a lot faster then querying ldap with referrals handling.
Adding a Base DN in the usersystem definition and multiple user search paths could be interesting (to boost performance).
The multiforest aspect we are hoping to solve with trusts which also need the referrals handling.
