You didn't say what your platform mix was. What systems are you currently using for authentication? More information on the 8 and their requirements might help us with recommendations.

Not that I know of. The best I can think of is scripting and a program to tie all the parameters together.

Hi Mshen. I was hoping there was a silver bullet that would take this problem away. It looks more and more like an Active Directory template scenario. Thanks.

If these are 8 different applications from different vendors, then there is no “magic bullet” sorry. not unless all the programmers from all the different companies want to get together and collaborate a solution for you… rather unlikely that. Best of luck to you! :-)
