Hi,

I am exploring how a VFP application can be authenticated via Active Directory. In concept, an Administrator of the VFP application should assign an AD person to the application. But how would this be done? Administrator cannot simply specify that "JOHN SMITH" is authorized to use the application, because AD can have more than one JOHN SMITH (as far as username). What unique ID from the AD would have to be set in the VFP application?

TIA
