    I am trying to map a AD domain login on my server to a remote server login (a sql authenticated acct). I am not having in success. Am I missing something, is it even possible?

    The purpose of this is to only allow users in the AD domain group to have access to the linked server, and those who are not in the AD group would be denied.

    yep, i'm confirming the same thing you are seeing,

    i cannot map a domain group to a remote login, even if i know it exists as a login on the server.

    i think you'll end up having to iterate thru the current members with xp_logininfo , and script out the grants for them them individually.

    EXEC master..xp_logininfo @acctname = 'disney\dev',@option = 'members' -- show group members

    Yes, it only seems to work if the login is a local login meaning a sql authenticated account or an individual AD domain user. But when I try to use a AD domain Group, it doesn't work. There must be a work-around
