Trying to authenticate against every domain would be a bad idea, especially on a big network with dozens (hundreds?) of domains where such an algorithm would easily get out of hand.
However, you could ease the burden on some users by: - Providing hints as to the correct format of the user and domain string would be a good thing. - Presenting a list of available domains on the network would be helpful. - If only one domain is found, defaulting to authenticating against that domain would make sense. - And once any successful authentication has occurred, it would be a good idea to cache the fully qualified user+domain, and reference that on future authentications. :-Dustin -- username format during login https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/192598 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
