Can I hide AD Account Names displaying in Project 2007?

When adding resourses or allocating a resourse to Risks or Issues, or users
can list all accounts with account names from Active Directory. We want to
hide the account names if possible

The challenge here is to understand which security identity is being used to
query AD and then restrict the access to the user objects it can see.

I'm guessing this account is the one that runs the application pool for the
front end web site. If this is set to Network Service, then you'd need to
change it to a named Domain account. It's likely that PS users reside
across many AD OU's making it difficult/impossible to dynamically assign
constrained access.

Another option would be to use another directory (Domain/ADAM/LDS) which
contains only PS user objects and to sync the accounts with the main
directory with MIIS or ILM2.

Hi Paul - thanks for your replay. I'm thinking it may be easier to disable
link to AD. Do you know if this is possible and if their are any
implications?

Janet.
