Can I use crowd to authenticate multiple domains / user directory servers

[Jim Weeks]

our company has multiple Atlassian products inside one of two distinct domains

JIRA on Corporate domain

Confluence on Corporate domain

HipChat on Corporate domain

we are adding

Bitbucket on Production domain

and possibly Bamboo on the Production domain

I need to be able to resolve the users, potentially the same user in either domain and have them sign on one time and inherit the correct role/access priviledges

can Crowd manage two distinct domains with potentially some overlap of users and not make me log in ever single time I swap between applications?

Hi Jim,

Crowd SSO relies on a specific DNS domain. Let's suppose you have the following URL:

http://jira.corporate.mycompany.com

http://confluence.corporate.mycompany.com

http://hipchat.corporate.mycompany.com

and

http://bitbucket.production.mycompany.com

http://bamboo.production.mycompany.com

You'd then have SSO between Jira, Confluence and Hipchat. And SSO between Bamboo and Bitbucket. But you would need something like http://jira.mycompany.com, http://confluence.mycompany.com, http://bitbucket.mycompany.com etc. to have SSO between all your applications.
