Grant access for users on a separate domain to SharePoint
- by Geo Ego
Hello. I just completed development of a SharePoint site on a virtual server and am currently in the process of granting users from a different domain to the site. The SharePoint domain is SHAREPOINT, and the domain with the users I want to give access to is COMPANY. I have provided them with a link to the site and added them as users via SharePoint, which is all I thought I would need to do. However, when they go to the link, the site shows them a SharePoint error page.
In the security event log, I am showing the following:
Event Type: Failure Audit
Event Source: Security
Event Category: Object Access
Event ID: 560

Then, four of these in a row:

Any ideas what permissions I need to grant to the user to get them access to SharePoint?
