Re: MS ADAM: How strategic is a) MS ADAM and b) Authorizaion Manager?

I'm not really sure on all of the details on the AD membership provider as I
haven't played with it very much yet. At this point I just know of its
existence and a few of the implementation details that it uses for
authentication.

Perhaps someone from the product group can provide more information. You
might also try the official beta newsgroups as that is where the 2.0 stuff
is supposed to get discussed at this point.
