In the company that I work , there are 2 LANs one Microsoft, the other Novell 6. Some off our cubes are read restricted based on the windows username. This however does not work for the Novell users. Can SQL server be configured to identify these users or is there some softsware that can be bought / Novell configured to resolve this?
Thanks in advance

If you are trying to directly access cube data, you should look at HTTP security. It is the only way in AS to do what you are trying to do.
You could try other third party tools that have security models that may work in your environment as well (i.e. Proclarity, SwiftKnowledge) or even use Reporting Services to expose the cube data.

Sorry didn't explain things properly.
Cubes are viewed via asp pages and we get the domain and logon of the user. This works fine when the user comes from the Microsoft controlled domain but not from the Novell one as we “loose” this information. The asp page then , quite correctly, says that the user doesn’t have the required credentials to view the page.
