Hello Experts, 
 
Some of users have reported that they are unable to access a SharePoint site. The SharePoint admin guy indicated he gave the group Indicator Catalogue Viewers view only.&quot; 
 
In addition to this, all company users should have view access to this site, as they grant access to a group in AD named &quot;OurDomain\domain users&quot; 
 
Ideally when we add “ourdomain\domain users” domain group, it should give permission to all company staff. Somehow it’s not working properly and I would like to know why? 
 
Our environment as per below: 
 
Exchange version [2010 SP3] 
 
SharePoint version [2010 latest SP] [there are a farm of servers] 
 
Windows/domain functional level [Windows 2008 R2] 
 
All client computers are Windows 7 professional SP1 
 
All SharePoint/Exchange/DCs are hyper-v guests and we have a child-tree domain structure 
 
What are the steps to resolve this AD/SharePoint integration issue? 
 
What tools should be used to reproduce this issue? 
 
Any ideas?
