I have written some code to fetch user information from an Active Directory Server. Suppose the Active Directory Server has nodes, each of which is another Active Directory Installation in a different geographic location. Eg: one AD server in US and another in Australia with a root AD Server in US with the former two as nodes.

Would the filter queries I write for searching users across geographic locations work if I run them on the root AD server ?. The query I use is

(|(objectClass=user)(objectClass=person)(objectClass=inetOrgPerson))

I cannot actually test this scenario but need to know the what will happen here.
