Re: Can I have a 3rd logon option?

Ok,
-So you think that a 3th logon would give you more control?
-Check at Quest website, perhaps they have what you need, at this momemt I can't remember of any tool that does that.

I hope that the information above helps you.

I'll reply to you and Jorge at the same time!

We are a College and students can use their student ID or their social
security number to gain access to our systems. We don't want to take that
capability away from them. We have provided Live@EDU email for those
students and have generated student email addresses for them. We want the
student to be able to use their student ID (which a small percentage
remember), or their Live@EDU email address (which is somewhat easier to
remember, but not all students use their accounts). We have social security
number as a fallback position.

We are the IT department for the College, so we don't make policy or make
the rules. We just put the technology in place that upper management
demands. If there is no way to get the 3rd logon account, then uppoer
management will have to pick two of the three they desire. But.... If I can
give them all three, then why not? Simple solutions are available when you
have control of the entire situation. In this case, I don't.

Hello Mike,

Why do you need multiple logon accounts for the same domain user?
