Hi Vlad!

Thank you for your answer.

I think I was a bit vague in my question. The thing I want to do is when the user enters username and password in our application I want to validate this in the domain.

When you need to disable certain features for certain users, just yse sys(0) VFP function to see what user is logged on currently, however for this you will require separate administrating module anyway, because you will not be able to add new configuring options to the system sequrity (like defining which users can access particular part of your application). Well you can organize this too, but this will not be so obvious and intuitive for administrators (make separate network share for each particular functionality in your applicaion that you want to disable for certain users. In application check if user have access to that share, if not - feature not available).
