RTC on WAS with multple AD domains

I am working with a customer planning to deploy RTC on WAS, and use Microsoft's Active Directory. They have multiple domain (eg: Europe, Americas and APAC) with potential users in each domain. Is there a way to set up RTC and WAS so that users can be authenticated from any of these domains, not just one.

Any suggestions gratefully received

Ran into something somewhat similar and I think you would need to have
an AD Global Catalog as described in
http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/cc728188%28WS.10%29.aspx and
http://publib.boulder.ibm.com/infocenter/wasinfo/v6r1/topic/com.ibm.websphere.base.doc/info/aes/ae/csec_was_ad_globcat.html.
At least the picture in that WAS link seems to reflext what you have.
Also note that when using an AD GC the ldap port becomes 3268
