Yes you can achieve this. The Authentication Login Name field (field id 117) on 
the User form interacts with the User Name field in the Login dialog box 
according to the following rules:
If the Authentication Login Name field is present on the User form (this field 
has a value of your LDAP login name) the value contained in this field is used 
for authentication (Refer +VL call in plugin logs) instead of the name entered 
in the User Name field in the Login dialog box.
For backwards compatibility, if the Authentication Login Name field is not 
present on the User form or the value in this field is NULL, then the user is 
authenticated with the information entered in the User Name field in the Login 
dialog box and that authentication will be based on Local remedy authentication.
   To accomplish this you MUST have Cross Reference Blank Password parameter 
set to True (i.e. Blank password in User form for the user).

** Hi Kiran.

One question for you. In my org. We have existing user profiles if we need to 
authenticate those users without changing their login name. Is there any way to 
achieve it. I seem one of the BMC doc and tried creating login alias name Field 
ID 117. But nothing works.

Regards
Karthick

Karthick,



Please remove these 2 lines from your ar.cfg and restart AR Service to see the 
results:



AREA-Hub-Plugin: my_area_plug-in.dll

Plugin: areahub.dll



Plugin server thinks your arealdap plugin is setup for hub but in real it's not.



Give it a try.

Karthick,



Is the AR server able to access the LDAP server? Use the ldap.exe from the AR 
Server and see if it works on that.



Does the bind user have any double byte characters for a password? There used 
to be (and I think there still is) an issue with the AR Server not able to 
authenticate users that have double byte characters for a password.
