Hello, I'm working on implementing SSO using 4D Server's new feature for that in our Windows environment. I'm working with our corp AD security folks and haven't got it to work yet (lots of hoops to jump through), but am trying to figure out how it works in the absence of being able to try and test it. Has anyone used it?
I'm not clear on when the SSO option is turned on, whether the user is presented with a login window of some sort. I'm also not clear on what 'Current client authentication' does other than get the name of the current Windows user, which is something I'm using Win32API for right now. Comments, anyone? A big mystery is how to handle the following scenario: > User A is logged onto a PC and is authenticated to the domain > User B wants to log into the 4D application. I'm not clear whether 4D Server will present User B with a login screen where he will have to present his AD credentials, or whether it takes User A's credentials from the current session? > If Server uses User A's credentials, how can User B indicate he doesn't want to use those and log on to the 4D app with his credentials, without changing the login to the machine? > If server uses User B's credentials to log in, does Current client authentication return User A's session information or User B's session information?
