Good point.  I had a different idea of redirecting the user to another URL 
altogether but thought to myself, "That's not appropriate for work" so I 
changed it before I sent the email.

Thanks,

Perform-action-exit-app is the better to use than just calling the logout page 
using the open url page.. I'm not sure it will actually do a logout by opening 
the logout page that way..

I could see this being useful for automation as well.  For example, you create 
an account to integrate with a monitoring tool that uses the Remedy API to 
create Incidents, but you don't want the owner of that account to log in and 
manually use Remedy with that account.

If you wanted to do a "mean" approach, you could probably just create an Active 
Link that is triggered On Display whenever they log in to the Remedy Home Page 
that checks for $USER$ = "usernametoblock" and do a Run Process of 
PERFORM-ACTION-OPEN-URL "http://yourremedyserver/arsys/shared/logout.jsp";

Client tool I do not only refer to User Tool.. It can be dev studio, spoon 
client, import tool etc.. this solution if possible through a non-workflow 
mechanism can help in preventing unnecessary login through generic accounts 
over web URL which is available over internet.. Client tools access we can 
restrict through VPN or other ways. If there can be a mechanism to blacklist 
some accounts to login through web; This can be one of the major security 
requirements to make sure Admin accounts are not misused.

PERFORM-APPLICATION-LOGOUT from the home page or any other page that the user 
might have access too if the $CLIEMT-TYPE$ = 9..

Why would you have such a requirement though when the future versions does not 
support access through the native User client?

This is a workflow mechanism - it will be impossible to do it with a non 
workflow mechanism. Unless you are free to employ a security guard to stand 
besides that employee and beat the crap out of him if he tries to log in 
through the mid tier.. That would be a non workflow mechanism :) - primitive
- but will work.. :)

Hi Listers,

I have a requirement to prevent a particular user to be able login through mid 
tier but same user should be able to login to client tools. Has anyone 
implemented such requirement? What can be the best way to achieve this?

Specifically looking for a non-workflow mechanism.

Regards,
Aditya
