A customer wants to know

1. if HCP supports AD Universal Groups2. if HCP supports connection to an AD forest (or only to AD domains).The latter I have found in the Admin Guide; one can configure the root domains of trusted forests.But how about support for Universal groups? As far as I know, an Universal Group is constructed (manually) from members from different domains, so I expect no problem for user authentication.

Would such a Universal Group be selectable when configuring management or namespace access?

Kind regards, Henk

Thanks Gaetano, Paul and Rainer for your help.

Paul has tested it and confirmed that Universal Groups work with HCP (only) for the 'Security' type. The other type, 'Distribution', does not.
