Multiple LDAP domains on the same IDP

There are docs on setting up multiple directories using aggregate dn resolver.  Maybe that's what you're looking for?

Both domains are completly separated. Users from one domain can't be in the
second one (as in, they can't be the same "physical" person). As for the
actual value of the nameid, the domains have different naming conventions
which makes it impossible to have the same value from one domain to another.

Both domains are built the same: one forest with a unique domain. So
different LDAP configuration required, I suppose.

We tried to find documentations about configuration for multiple domains but
had no luck so far. From the infos we could gather, we need to:

-duplicate the ldap.properties file and reference them in the idp.properties
file (done)
-Change value according the domains informations (ldap1.properties and
ldap2.properties) (done)

The rest of the configuration seems to be in the ldap-authn-config.xml file,
but i haven't seen anything precise for this part... So far ldap2.properties
seems to be processed by Shibboleth (and ldap1.properties is ignored or
overriden).
