Unfortunately, no. Because while you are correct, that DOM1\user and 
DOM2\user should be the same, that is not my issue. Really there is no 
duplicates of user ID's between the domains (already checked that one 
out). Currently when doing tacacs auth, I just accept the user name, and 
krb5 appends the domain on it before validating the user/pass pair for 
me. What I want to do is have it try a series of domains before 
returning 'valid' or 'invalid'.

Amusingly I just discovered I cannot reach any of the other domain 
controllers from the tacacs server in question, so this whole exercise 
might be moot.
