Hi, It’s impossible for your case. The Authentication method is based on Web Application Level, same application must have same authentication provider. For more information, please refer to “Plan authentication methods” http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/cc288475(office.12).aspx Hope this helps Thanks! Stanfford
