can alfresco access 2 servers for authentication....

Hi,
I have set up authentication against 1 server using
ntlm-authentication-context.xml and 'passthru' in file-servers.xml

All is good, however…..

How do I get Alfresco to authenticate against 2 servers in succession??
When I list 2 servers it takes 2 logon attempts to be successful.
Each loaction has there own logon details stored on a particular ldap server which are not duplicated so a user authentication will fail against 1 server but not the other.
My question therefore is….
Can Alfresco check 2 or more servers in succession for authentication??????

NTLM config works for one server.
Can Alfresco check 2 indepenent servers for authentication???

If I list the 2 servers in the ntlm context file it can take 2 attempts to logon!!!
Looks like Alfresco knows about the 2 servers but cannot try them in succession!
Any reason why????

Alfresco is a nightmare to configure.
