Hi I have the following scenario: I have Web Application hosted on IIS and I am in domain a.b.com. The IIS is configured to authenticate the users with windows authentication and everyone that in the domain a.b.com can enter the site. But there are users that in another domain lets call it c.d.com and they can't enter the site with their windows credentials because the IIS check against a.b.com...

How can I configure IIS to check for windows user in c.d.com? Thanks!
